yeah, that's why I love this thread. I'm trolling now, and just found out there's an aux port in the glove box! Just checked it and it works!! I'm a sound engineer, so I get excited about things like that-lol!!

Can you post pics and HOW you did what you did to fix it? My Left Fog lamp is out and recently converted it to HID 6000k. I took out the bulb thinking it was just the bulb or ballast, but noticed water droplets once I disconnected the harnesses. Please help! I really want to fix this!

It would've been a whole lot easier if the car were on a lift. I had to use the jack to lift the car and remove the wheel. There's a convenient door that opens with a screwdriver that'll give you access to the wiring. I recently replaced my headlights and had to remove the bumper in the process, and I can tell you that removing the bumper is the easiest way to get to the fog lights, if you need to completely remove/replace them.
Hope this helps, if not, let me know and I'll see if I have more pics on the subject...I seem to remember taking more pics than what you see in this thread. Have you checked that connector?

Yes, please post any pics or how to's for this. I am new to the MB arena and have typically owned Ford or Chevy cars. I do have a Land Rover which has tested my faith MULTIPLE times, so I know I can do this. Just want to be sure with things like electric before I cut and splice anything. Thank you for your help and consideration.
