What type of C class are you looking for ? W202, W203, W204?

Assuming W203... the light actually goes in the roof trim, not the visor itself - you will see two rectangular recesses, one above each visor, which you need to cut-out, and then fit the lights there. But these are not pre-wired - so you also need to get the wires up behind the trim somehow... then you need to change the fixed hinge on each visor, and wire these two. The idea is that when you flip the visor down, the switch in the hinge switches-on the light. Given that the light is not actually in the visor, and that the wiring isn't in place, I gave up on this - and told Mrs. MJ to just switch-on the reading light in the central roof console when opening the visor at night... but if you must, then there are a few posts regarding this mod on the Internet on other forums.

Cheers Mark, your reasoning on telling mrs MJ to use the reading light sounds the very best idea.
