<div class="bbWrapper">Now it's getting dark a bit earlier in the evenings I'm noticing the interior lights in my 2013 C63 have a very yellow/orange sort of light. I've swapped interior bulbs for LEDs on previous so thinking about doing the same again on this one.<br /> <br /> I was about to start figuring out the bulb types for each interior light and found that there are websites that sell complete sets as a kit, like this one - <a href="https://www.horizonleds.co.uk/mercedes-benz-c-class-w204-interior-led-kit-pack" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">Mercedes Benz C-Class W204 Complete Interior LED Pack</a><br /> <br /> Seems fairly promising - anyone used these or one from another site like that?</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">To close this out, I ordered this kit instead (as the one linked in my OP was out of stock at the time) - <a href="https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163649005269" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">Mercedes W204 C204 LED Interior Kit Premium Canbus Error Free Bulbs C Class | eBay</a><br /> <br /> Arrived quickly, included instructions, a plastic trim removal tool and each of the bulbs or sets of bulbs were in little ziplock bags marked with where they were to fit. The bulbs are bright and a nice, neutral white. Old on the left, new on the right:<br /> <br /> <script class="js-extraPhrases" type="application/json"> { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", "lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded.

<div class="bbWrapper">Thanks for this post 8bit. Just upgraded my interior bulbs with the same kit (different supplier), made a huge difference. Much brighter and whiter light.<br /> <br /> My rear dome light must be a basic model though as it only has one bulb in it. The bulb in it is fitted sideways and the one I recieved is more of a &quot;downward&quot; firing one (like the front dome/vanity mirror), bit darker in the rear than the front as the wrong sort of bulb but still brighter. The rear dome led bag had 3 bulbs in it , maybe the higher trim models have a different rear light assembly to mine (C200 executive).<br /> <br /> Still a great upgrade though.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Happy to help! Your observation with the rear dome sounds familiar and I'm pretty sure I had one or two bulbs left over - could be a model year thing.</div>
