Nice to see that MB now make 'their own' Chrome bulbs ... no more fried eggs for me. Although I was a bit disappointed that they cost £11 for two ... the parts guy implied that it was a full set of indicator bulbs ! (Good job I had some spare ones that I removed from the BMW - although they are not as bright as the MB ones, so will have to get another set !)

Very nice Sym, I did the same with mine, but got them from PowerBulbs - £13.45 :eek: "MB in cheaper parts shock!" :D
 
OEM is normally cheaper than hellfrauds for bulbs anyway .. so not surprised on the price .. just the fact that they can't do a set of 4 for £11 !

Well done Flash. The car looks fab.

I can't help cringing though when I see beautiful shiney alloys with hammer on balance weights. Do they come from the factory this way?

My wheels are crap and desperately in need of a refurb but I still insist on stick on weights on the inside.

edit: Whoops I seem to have jumped threads. I was referring to Flash's zymol post in Bodywork. Doh!

It looks nice and also a good price from a dealer as well (shock horror), I got a set of the philips silver vision from Power bulbs which are brilliant and they cost £13.45 with that your meant to get a set of philips side light bulbs they had no stock so they sent me an alternative (osrams) which in my opinion were quite poor. I do plan to buy a set of PIAA Xtreme white side light bulbs (they cost £10.14) as anyone have any experience with these bulbs and if so are they any good?.
 
Gutted!

I bought these last week from Powerbulbs - £13 as posted above, got free sidelights though...

I still have my freebie W5Ws in a draw, as they don't fit the CLK. Had to buy a pair of H6W instead.

Did you? Can't remember :confused:

They were freebies so no apologies needed anyway :D
