I was thinking the same thing, this single thread has probably yielded a dozen sales.

The good news is that these are standard on all Mercedes vehicles. So, there should be a sizable stock pile.

Got mine from here ( 2pcs 18x WHITE LED LICENSE PLATE LAMP MERCEDES BENZ C CLASS W203 2001-2007 AMG | eBay ), they list the same cars and are a few bucks cheaper and have the 18 LED's as well. I am sure they are the same item as what the others have bought! Cannot wait to install them (but not when the Mrs finds out I bought something else for 'that dang car'... Its OK, she'll come around!). Gonna LUV the bright plate lights! Hey, how has the segments lasted? Has any of the 18 blown out yet? Inquiring minds want to know (although too late, already bought/paid for) Ha ha ha ha!


Forgot to mention, total was $26.85, comes out to $13.42 and 1/2 cents each! I love a discount!

Yes I did, what I didn't see was the reference to 'wagon' on any of the listing of the items that worked. Being (maybe overly) cautious, I got the lower ones that were as listed on the ones that did work. On the price, your math is skewered. Don't know quite where but it is not what my invoice shows for USA dollars.

CLS550 listed in this one.. and the ones I purchased.. unless they are for a different CLS550..

Even if it listed.. fits go carts.. think I'd still have bought them..

Got mine in a few days ago, and installed them in ~10 minutes. HUGE improvement. I'd post pics, but Gary's work perfectly fine.

Overall, GREAT SUCCESS!

Got in from the golf course around 4:30 and found mine in the mail box. About 15 minutes later they were installed and burning brightly.Thanks again for the heads up on these.

The ones you quoted from jummyskullz are currently $31.95, seems there are many that work. The ones I researched today have every model listed as the ones you quoted from jimmyskullz AND they are 18 LED AND they look just like them BUT most important they were only $26.85 DELIVERED to USA!



MrMiata, I still don't quite understand fully your posts 47 and 49... Post 47 for the price reference and 49 totally. Are you saying in 49 that just the car type would be a match regardless of the other descriptive listings? They still currently are $5.10 more than the set I found (understand the less expensive set you pointed to in 47 might be the same but again, I only saw referenced in that one the term 'wagon', and wagon wasn't listed in the OP or other sets listed that are more expensive). I get easily confused, I guess...



JimmySkullz, you post the listed ones over a year with no problems, have you actually looked to see if any of the 18 each side individual LED's have burned out? That was my intended question, I could have been more clear.

Just saying the ones I purchased also list cars found in the other listings.. Noticed some have 3 pages of compatablity while others have only two. Just means they didn't cross reference to every car they fit, and seems MB had a big run on these OEM style to use on several cars.

Personally.. no dollars out of my wallet no matter which vender anyone chooses..

A $5.10 difference isn't that important to me, I consider it a convenience fee for not searching alternatives, after all I live in highest taxed state in the Union .

Yes, as originally stated:

These bulbs are cheaper than the cost of one fill-up... so yes, I'm with you.

Oh I agree.. @ 32 bucks if you need them, or are working towards full led, it's still a bargain. Mine aren't cracked.. fully intact and functioning, so it was a "want" and not a "need". Just finding them for $23 kicked me on over the fence..

Price drop, now $28.75 when I ordered. Maybe I should have waited another couple of days.

somewhat related : I just ordered quantity 10 - 5 LED 2825 CANBUS bulbs for $1.25 each.
( $12.00 + $.50 from HK ) - shipping will take some time, but I'm not in a hurry.
These fit : the headlight 'eyebrow' lights and the front & rear side markers.

( I already did the eyebrow lights and am very happy with them, so I was gonna order some more for the side markers when I ran across this deal )
