Error free Daytime running lights

[Lee C63]

Has anyone fitted LED daytime running lights on the W204 or the LED license plate lights?
Just wondered if there are any opinions or horror stories with these.

I personally like the Piecha DRL's on the pre face lift c63 but they are very expensive!

For all of you out there that are worried about the cost of these I have just bought one and fitted it to my 2013 C220 (W204). I bought it from a company in Berlin, Autodoc.eu, for £21 + VAT.

It is made in Taiwan (the original was made in Slovakia) however it's a good match and works fine.

With regard to removing the old unit I found this to be a real pain to figure-out , however now that I know how to do it I will share the process with you.

There is a small triangular plastic flap under the front of the car next to the belly pan and near the wheel arch, this has 1 x 8mm bolt securing it. Remove this bolt pull the flap down and push it to one side. You will now be able to see the back of the light and one of the four plastic clips that secure it. Do not bother trying to pull or push the clips in order to remove the light as no amount of force will work. Simply use a short stout knife (about 70mm long) and insert the blade into the clip surround then using leverage break the clip (note that I refer to the clip on the light rather than the surrounding Bumper mounting plate). This is relatively easy for the one that you can see however in the case of the other three you have to rely upon your sense of touch. Once you have done this the light can be removed from under the car. The next thing that you have to do is to unplug the electrical connector. In order to achieve this you have to unclip the grey retainer and pull it away from the light, the connector can then be removed. When you come to fit the new light be careful to align the plastic tags that clip onto the light fitting. Hey presto your done!
