Ooh, those are nice - keep me updated on that! I've been looking into LEDs too, although I wonder how those would work with the turn-and-light feature I've got on mine.

I'm having the dealer look into it right now to see if they can just program it as DRLs like the modern MBs.

If worst comes to worst I can just do what a GL member did- he tapped into accessory power so it's always on when the car is on and just mounted the fog lights behind the bumper so he won't get an error code.

What I'd likely do is wire it up to the parking lights so I can choose when to have it on or off and then mount the fog lights behind the bumper to avoid an error.


Some info can be found here, parts appear to be ~$750:

But basically I'm waiting to hear from the dealer before choosing a plan of action.

I'll keep you guys updated!

Just checked the lights on Parts.com. $126 each. Didn't check other numbers. Don't believe I have the AMG bumper.
