Just bought the aftermarket taillight. Just purchased and received and works perfect and looks dead on (plug and play).
Believe me as usually i dont buy aftermarket when it comes to lighting but i gave it a chance since it was significantly cheaper.

I think brand is DEPO as it was on the box. I'll post pictures tonight. No notable difference other than the jamb portion is unpainted which I'll remove and paint with satin black and replace. Also top and bottom is lighting but top is slightly dimmer.

CL55_Serge, sorry almost forgot, attached are the pictures of the aftermarket lights (I think it's DEPO) I put on my vehicle. Next I will take pictures of lights when on.

I just did the S65 body kit on my '07 S550. Have the tail lights and new SAM ready for the shop for Monday. Only thing missing is the tail pipes. I'll post pictures when its complete.
Hey Serge: Did you ever get the tail pipes? If you did, would you mind posting the details and some picks?
Thanks in advanced.

not yet - supposedly they have ordered the correct ones for me now, will keep everyone posted. Does anyone know the part number of the S63 2011 mufflers/tips?

Man those aftermarket ones look really close to oem, wish they were around months ago.
Any updated pics with the aftermarket ones lit on?

"We have added your to our waiting list and will contact you once the tail light is in stock.We don't have the final set price yet, but it will be somewhere around $300 + freight.
Regards,
Simon"
I asked him specifically if they are the new Facelift tail lights and would fit 07-09 S class. He didn't really answer that question but sent me the email I've pasted above.
