I also would like to know if these would fit in the license plate area. If so I need to change mine.

I wonder why we couldn't get the stock C-Class ones from Japan. Check out the photo.

you really want to pay $300 for a set of LEDs? Even OEM MB?

Blueacc, I'm guessing you're a new member so I'll try not to be harsh. First off. You're advertising a product that we know nothing about in terms of quality and durability. Secondly, we have all pooled our interest into these particular LEDs due to their tested and proved resilience to voltage fluctuations and adequate overheating of the resistors. Unless you can provide facts as to how much voltage your resistors can take, and give us proof of how many logged hours there are in the testing of your product, many of us will have no interest, no matter how "cool" they look. Also you're stealing the thread. That is highly frowned upon. Hope you enjoy the W204 forums. As all LEDs do, they look nice. Whether they can withstand the test of time is another question.

And Mike, we are clear to send payment now right? Also what's the ETA for these LEDs? Do you already have em or are you ordering a bunch now? Hope to hear back.

As far as payment, I updated first post regarding when GB will end and when you can start sending payment. I'm going to order it all at once next Thursday. This will give everyone ample time to get in on the GB. After that, then it's just wait till I get the LEDs in from the manufacturer and usually takes me a day or so to repackage them for everyone and mail them out. From experience from last GBs, some get it next day, some take a full week to get. Depends on how close you are from your post office major hub it seemed.

If you're in socal, you have local pickup option also if you want to save on shipping.

The rear turn signals are OEM, therefore run on the exact voltage the car provides, so heating is not an issue. Also, we don't drive our cars with the hazard lights on for extended periods of time so it's doubtful they would overheat at all. The eyelids however, have a varying voltage that causes aftermarket LEDs to overheat, and those who drive at night, or just drive with the parking lights on, face that overheating problem as time passes by. If you can provide a quality product as you say, then we may be interested in them. We just need to run the same routine we did here. At least 50 hours of testing total, and at least 3-5 hours of straight testing. And once again I didn't mean to offend.

Mike, if I can ever make it out to a damn meet I will definitely pick up. Haha. But student life is oddly not all it's cracked up to be.

Don't get me wrong, I don't care one way or another who's LED is better. I just want the best solution out there for the community, but everything you're claiming, we've all heard before from manufacturers in Europe, Korea, and Japan. Until we see answers and proof to those questions, you need to understand our skepticism.

Resistors are cheap to buy, even named brand ones. I've had plenty of EE courses and have played with most of them before. Please answer the question though as they play a big part in success rate of these LEDs. What voltage range can they accept? All these LEDs we've had in the past can stay on continuously for hours at a time in perfect condition, but have they been tested with the voltage shift under heat with no Kelvin shift? And what price point are you even selling them at/ I'm not saying you're lying but you have no post count and no contribution to these forums in almost a year so have no cred yet. Also, there's the simple issue of you breaking TOU by selling your wholesale wares without being a sponsor which has gotten more than one member banned before.

So they decided to use only this high quality resistor for all the Canbus LED products...I mostly drive at night.. So the led has been used for a good period of time.. The longest it stayed on was about 3 1/2 or so.. After 6 months of time... the LED looks new.. nothing melt nor fall off.. High quality product. I dont have a picture,, sorry... Well with a 6months warranty... I don't really worry too much.. I'm a wholesaler in all AUTO LED Products.. I always try out the products myself before saying anything... Many strangers on the streets have bought plenties of LED Lights bulbs from me,,,Belive me or not...Thank you..

Once again, tell us, actually no. Prove to us what makes yours better, then we will consider buying them. As a retailer I'm sure (once again no real offense attended, just defending a point here) you have a bias towards others' LEDs solely due to the fact that you need to advertise and sell. Rather than attacking the LEDs of other retailers, tell us what's so good about yours. Woo us. That's how you get customers.

Edit: After seeing that post, you lost all business here anyways. Once again, you just showed poor knowledge as a salesman and a distributor then. You showed you lack knowledge of the product you sell AND you clearly show by your attitude that you have no desire to work with us in actually seeing it through. So good luck with your sub par service elsewhere.

For the record, you're not a manufacturer if you "only use and sell them." You're only a wholesaler/distributor. A manufacturer would have the information we are asking for.

How did I get ripped off. >_> What makes your LEDs a better value?

Just lick your wounds elsewhere and enjoy this emoticon. It's the only emotion you'll get out of me from now on.

I'll tell you what. Give me the name of the factory so I can find their contact information, and I'll call and ask them about these LEDs myself. I'll check back later tomorrow if you're still here to respond. For now. Have a good night.
