I ordered these off Ali Express, Ordered on 6th June arrived 29th June, Problems:
The connectors on the lights are too small for the wiring plug from car to fit.
No blue wire to connect to Puddle lights when car is unlocked in the dark.
Seller refunded said not to send back, in my boredom I decided to chop the housing off for the connector making a bigger gap for Mercedes wiring plug - still did not work although it fits the connector, so turned it the plug upside down to change polarity off plug as it is LED. it works but now the housing is chopped off the plug will not stay in place so I hot glued and gaffer taped the plug in place and did the same on other side. All working now apart from not blue light when unlocking at night as the blue wire is not attached to light, I can live with this as these have not cost anything as too how long they will last I have no idea which is why I'm keeping the original lights safe in case I need to put them back in.
It would have been nice and well worth the £23 if they worked straight out the box with the blue light and were plug and play.
