I recently bought a set of aftermarket LED tail lights for my 2002, C240 Mercedes and would like to share with everyone else interested my experience.


Fitment: Perfect fit
Quality: Feels like OEM
Lighting: The lights all light up and looks very well. All LEDs look well made. Very bright.
Installation: About 30 mins.
Thoughts: Looks as good as the picture.

Installation Proceedure Used: (This is only a reference to how I installed mine and not intended as installation instructions. Use at your own risk.) Tools: small socket set or small monkey wrench set (sorry forgot the exact socket) and maybe a flat screwdriver.

The lights are held up to the car's body via 4 screws that stick out of the tail light housing
and through some holes in the car's body. Each screw is tightened with a nut. You have one screw near the front, one in the mid front area, one near the top but towards the rear and one near the bottom rear of the housing.

In order to access these nuts, you'll have to pry the inner linings of your trunk in the areas by the tail lights.  What I did first was to remove the inner lining cover that allowed access to switch the bulbs. All you do is push it away from the center of the trunk. It will slide over and pop out. I then removed and disconnected the plate that the bulbs are on (you wont need this anymore so move it out of the way). This gave me access to the nuts. I recommend a monkey wrench or an adjustable wrench b/c there is not enough room to put in the socket and the driver without pulling or bending something. I did use a socket b/c I did not have any wrench and it worked but I did have to bend some of the inner plastic and carpet linings. Then I located the nuts, in the positions as stated above and started loosening them. They were not tight and came right out but be careful not to drop them. You'll need these to screw back when you install the new one. Once all the nuts came out  the housing came right off the car. Installation is just the opposite of removal but make sure you do not tighten all the nuts onto the screws until after you put all 4 nuts on the screws. This is b/c the tail light housing has a foam seal that goes between the car's body and the housing. You'll want to put a little bit of pressure on the housing to have it be snug up against the car before you tighten it. This will also give you a chance to align the housing to the the car body. Then tighten each nut at a time. Hope this sheds some light. If your not sure always take it to a pro.

I love the lights and it goes well with my C240 sedan.
