lighting

The "glow-worm" that attempts to illuminate the storage compartment under the centre armrest in my CLS is seriously inadequate. Trying to see anything in there at night is nigh on impossible! I pulled the fitting out only to find it's some sort of LED or light guide. There is no bulb. Has...

My new 62 plate s204 is a little odd on the lighting setup. The 2012 revision has the LED daytime running lights on all models now. The LED daytime running lights only come on when lights are set to auto. But the annoying bit is the tolerance at which the car turns these off and turns the...

I have noticed that sometimes the passenger footwell is dimly lit while driving and at other times is pitch black. When the doors are open it is very brightly lit. Can someone please advise if it is it normal for the footwell to be pitch black while driving or not? My car is a 2012 C Class 125...

Hi all, This is my first post as only bought my vito today! It is a 53 plate with 88k on the clock. Drove it back 100 miles from seller this evening and stopped at a friends house on way back. After having a chat for a few mins, I went to restart the Vito and it just turned over and wouldn't...

Hello, I own a s210 320 cdi and i installed on it all the interior light with leds, but I have a problem with the mirror light, they don´t turn on. Any idea? Maybe a fuse?

I had a look (laying on the floor looking up!) - and the ambient lighting strips seem to be fitted into the wooden door trims. Does anyone know if these are, or could be connected to work as an after fitment. It did not come with ambient lighting. Thanks.

Hi, I have intermittent lighting on the RHS of my heater controls: (2 x thumbwheel, 2 x circular dial type with heated rear window/EC/recirculate buttons in the middle) I have searched the archives and found posts relating to changing bulbs but none regarding my issue. It looks like there...

:wallbash: Does anyone know how to fix the ambient lighting from the rear view mirror, mine stopped working.

After not being driven since the end of Nov, I took my fathers '01 C200 K up to Heathrow this afternoon to give it a run and pick him up. The car started fine, and I had no problems until I noticed the radio display,hazard ligh button and heater controls had all gone really dimly lit. The main...

Went out last night in my '94 w124 e300d and the instrument binnacle and auto trans. lever surround lighting failed to come on. I've checked the fuse box and all fuses are intact (fuse no.3 appears to be the one in question, also responsable for the rear number plate which remains lit)...

Just thought I'd make comment on how darn useful this feature is. My daily commute home at this time of year is in the dark and consists of approximately 20 miles on fast, unlit, country A- and B-roads. When I had my W204, even though I'd never driven a car fitted with the Intelligent...

I am thinking of this for my next mod to finish the cabin after the chrome work went in over the weekend. Miss the ambient lighting of some of my previous cars. Will this work for the CLK - I think it should but just thought i'd see if anyone has currently doen this as yet? "I have only...

Hi All. I have an ambient lighting interior led strip that i want to wire up on the r129. Does anyone know where the best location would be to wire up the strip on the interior so that it uses the dim funtion on the speedo and stays on when the interior lights are on like driving at night? If i...
