    W163 headlight / sidelight upgrade

    Hi guys, Just wanted to know whether anyone has opted for an LED sidelight and fitted without any issues or warnings? Also, which "uprated" bulbs had been fitted to the main headlights and whether it's worth the change? Finally, which silver coated indicator bulbs have been used? Thanks

    Sidelight bulbs for SL -R230

    The present sidelights give a very 'puny' light when viewed against the bi-xenons. Can anyone suggest a set of bulbs which would give a brighter light? Can LED lights be fitted? Am I right in thinking the std bulbs are H6W -433? Any reputable suppliers?

    How do you change the front sidelight on a W169 A Class?

    My wife has a 2005 A Class. I thought I'd buy a set of bulbs so that I could replace them as they failed - just as with my old W124 :) However, when the first bulb failed - a front sidelight - I really couldn't understand the very terse and poorly illustrated instructions in the user...

    LED sidelight bulbs -no errors

    These LED sidelight bulbs work fine with no errors and no fitting of very hot resistors/scotchlocks on wires is required, which is a bonus when there is very little room for these. They are very small and very well designed with exceptional detail. The chap makes them himself I beleive and has...

    I had a broken side light so fitted a new bulb and then a new bulb holder with no joy. The problem was traced today to a small component in the wire which was getting hot. It has been cut out and replaced with some spade connectors so the light is working. Can anyone tell me what the...

    230TE dim dip sidelight feature

    Hi, on my 230TE 1988, one of the nice features (I always thought) was when the engine is running, and the sidelights (ONLY) are on you get a brighter beam. It saves having dipped beam headlights on when you don't really need them. Recently however, this feature has only been working...
