Another Noob :)
G'day!
been following a lot of threads regarding LED's / Lighting and general trouble shooting and this forum has been a wealth of useful information.
Grown up with Japanese/Korean cars (suzuki, honda, kia, kia, honda the last five cars in that order!) and this is the first 'European' car I've bought and I have to admit it's a joy to drive (my last car was a 2014 Honda Odyssey Elite (JDM) in Australia...
Since I moved to the US late last year, i've been 'tanking' around in a 2004 Chevy Surburban LT and wanted a small sedan for when I didn't need to pack the whole tribe in (which is most of the time).
So I got this lovely 2002 C240 single owner for a steal and the wife loves it... (drove the odyssey, will NOT drive the suburban..)
I've since replaced the stock cloudy lights and fogs with clear lens projector (halogens still), all with Diamond Vision bulbs for that nice white light, LEDs for side marker and city lights courtesy of AznOptics (after trying about 4 different sets from Amazon all with error codes!), tinted it ... (coming from Australia, who LIVES in this baking state without tinting??) and put staggered C300 Stock Tires on it as well (it was a freeby from a relative so why not... had spacers and everything). I do have a problem with licence plate LED's (i'll go post that in it's correct forum) but wanted to stop by and say hello first
Anyway, look forward to hearing from you all
Cheers!
Jon
ps. attached what my little mb looks like currently
