They look nice.. I wonder as well about the blue tint from one of the reviews. Pretty nice price as well.
Hmm.. wonder how they would look with my retro fit HID's
*nice find

ive tried differnt led's for the fogs and personally they look nice color and all but had no throw whatsoever . and I ever tried one with 28SMD leds on it and still not enough throw for me to pull off just the fogs and city lights while driving at night lol not that I recommend it.
back on OP topic, i think ima going to try those also because they seem to get decent reviews from mercedes folks on there and I purchased some oem replacements from a ebay seller for $75 /pair shipped and he stated that they will turn whiter after so long but its been a year and still burns warmer then the one thats been in there since i had the car even though they are still same bulbs . So I think ima try these also once I get your feedback on them

Here they are
My old ones were OLD (old on the right).
And very dim.
New ones look to be well constructed and very bright. Just the right color for me.
One thing I found is that the headlights now throw and illuminate MUCH better. But I did find an apparently weird pattern that I am sure was there all along. I suspect I need to adjust them now that I can actually see.
6000K LED fogs should be coming this week.
City's are 5000K but match nicely IMHO.
Also, I goofed up. These bulbs are not cheap, they are VERY cheap. I thought it was $36 per bulb. It was $36 per PAIR! I have an extra set now.

They look bright and throw a lot of light. Is it possible to snap a pic without the headlights like to see how the city lights look.
Do you also have a link for the city lights?
Nice upgrade
Bring on the fogs
