New LEDs on CLS

not any where near a match ..

when fitted 18 months ago, car was 4 years old.

Just checked my records, you ordered a set of 'Blue' ones which I no longer sell... That explains the mis-match!

Ive never had anyone have anything bad to say about the 'white' 5000k ones :)

Had a set of white ones from KillerHertz for my CLK with Xenons
Perfect match, excellent service /price delivery.
 
Unfortunately my '00 w215 CL didn't like them, not enough load resistance to get past the very fussy bulb monitor. I had to add load resistors to stop the blinking - I tried all the methods known to get them to work without load resistors but no joy. They've been installed for over a year and are still in good working order. My Xenon headlights are probably using their original 12 year old bulbs so are more like 4300k in colour and the 5000k LED sidelight bulbs do look a little blue in this company. I tried a set of ebay 5000k Xenon HID bulbs from a UK supplier in the Mercedes fitment and even those set off the bulb monitor so I guess if you have an early W215 or maybe a W220 you will probably need load resistors when fitting LEDs and OEM Osram Xenons are the only option for headlights. I'll see if I can get a picture loaded up later.
 
I fitted these L£D sidelights to my 211 that had xenons and they were an identical match. Here's a photo I found of the car with both lights on and as you see, they really were the same.

Need a facelift grill on that ;) start modding!
To save me ringing a stealer, does anyone know off hand how much a facelift grille for a CLS would cost? :)
 
I think they are around £250. Needs some minor amendments to the clips in order to fit a prefacelift car from what I have read though.

Somevery nice looking aftermarket items around. I've been considering one of these:
Mercedes Benz CLS Front Grille 2004-2010 Model W219 | eBay
I've been wondering about the single bar grille, but can't decide if it looks right or not. When I first got the CLS last year I posed that question here and a lot of guys thought it didn't...

Yanks go mad over the blue ones...!

Still, they like Chrome 'rims'

I do indeed have my 3 bar one! However I'm not entirely happy with the single slat, thinking of painting the 3bar one black :dk:

I do have an AMG steering wheel in almost mint condition :cool:
 
If you do decide to let the 3 bar one go, please let me know! :)
