--has anyone tried this LED kit--

just came across this and thought i'd share, i know alot of people have tried various diff kinds, with some not working some working.. However i asked the seller if these have heat sink resistors and all and he replied yes and they are put through multiple tests before shipped... I know it says w211 Wagons but it has the perfect amount of bulbs as my car has

any thoughts?

Ok, Keep us all updated seems like a good kit!! If the AZN optics had a kit like this I think people would be all over it one stop shop for every LED needed for the W211 interior!!

UPDATE*** just thought i'd let everyone know i have installed these LED's through the car but the dome because i didn't get a chance to get to that yet... they work great they have massive heat shield and will not MELT nor will they flicker... they are bright as could be and look super nice and gives it that updated look... just thought i'd share my experience because i bought some prior to this and they were garbage and threw them away,

these are Good To Go!!!

when you get a chance if you could post some pictures it would be greatly appreciated. curious to see how the "mood lighting" looks. also if there is any clash from the yellow to the white lights. ( i know but im **** when it comes to stuff looking out of place)

Does your footwell lights stay on even when the door's closed? I'm currently testing out multiple sets in my car right now and I noticed that the footwell ligths stay on when the door's closed and I'm not sure how I feel about that..

The 9006 fog lamp bulbs are directly replaceable with ultra bright LED's with load resistors to keep the CAN bus happy.

I recommend JLC Lightning as well (ebay and their own website).

I have had every single light in the CL replaced with LED's including trunk and glovebox. 2 years later, 0 problems.
