lights

Has anybody got or retrofitted footwell light or lights in the base of the door panels where the little red reflectors are.

So, travelling down the M6 towards Manchester last week behind a E63 65plate estate. All of a sudden everyone's brake lights lit up and all cars grind to a holt. The reason was shear volume of traffic and thankfully not an accident. Honestly I'd never had to slam on as hard for many years...

Greetings folks. Since short time I am an owner of W209, and I love it ! But now ahead of me is few months trip to continental Europe where I will have to drive on the right hand side. Therefore I would like to adjust the headlights so they don't blind the upcoming traffic. As my trip...

About 2 weeks ago, I purchased a 2002 ML 320 from a trader in Birmingham. I drove the car back to Swansea in torrential rain with, I thought, no issues. On checking the car the following day, I found that none of the brake lights or front sidelights were working. My fault I know, but the car...

I thought some LED lights would make the headlights nicer and brighter, but it turned out a mistake. As those LED lights are 50w, they needs a resistor to get rid off the error message on the dashboard. It is those resistors that are very dangerous. if someone are using them, you'd better to...

I have a 2005 CLK 209 facelift, the auto lights have all ways worked, but now the headlights Don,t come on just the side lights, any ideas. Many Thanks.

Hi Guys I bought a nice 300e a few weeks back and I love it. A few wee niggles but overall not much :) I was hoping I could get some advice from the experts to help me. The aircon lights sometimes don't work on the buttons and when that happens I only get hot air through the system...

Have been trying to find out what is the best thing to do with the gearbox when waiting at the traffic lights? My options are 1. Leave it in D and hold the car using the brakes, cant be good for the brake, especially after some spiritedly driving 2. Select P and no parking brake, car rocks a bit...

Evening gents and ladies, first post here. Bit annoying i know, to be wanting something already but im searching for some aftermarket tail light lenses with no orange for my W123 coupe please. Depo made some i believe but i cant find any. Used would be perfectly fine if they are in good nick...

Hi thanks for looking at my post, and more importantly thanks to all you people out there for posting the below link C1401 ABS/ETS/BAS lights come on randomly - Mercedes-Benz Forum my question is does anyone in the uk know where I can purchase the correct copper spec brushes please...

Hi guys / gals. New to this forum, so hi to everyone. I have just bought a NEW vito 116 Bluetec van. I had my last Vito van from new since 2004. Loved it :-). Ok, so in my last van I converted the rear cargo bay silly little light, to two strips of LEDs, simply by wiring them straight to the...

Hi I want to fit running lights to my 2005 109 Vito but dont know where to get a switched feed from. I would pick it up from the fues box to make wiring easy rather than going to the ignition switch. I will be fitting a relay so I will only be adding a small current increase to the circuit. or...

Hi guys, I was wondering how hard it is to change the front fog light bulb on a 2006 ml 320, do you get at it from outside bye moving trim or engine bay ??

I've been using LED units for a while now. One has gone so I need to replace. However, as they get more powerful, they have become out of sync with the xenons and I don't like the imbalance. The side lights look too bright and too blue. Is there a more powerful whiter halogen bulb...

After months of promising myself, I eventually fired some nice new Philips 4700K HID bulbs on Saturday. To say they made a night and day difference would be an understatement. I suspect the old ones were originals. I can actually see with a dipped light now. And I polished up the lenses a bit...
