When to replace the light fixture on a Mercedes C class?
This is the entire fixture replacement which is a lot better than just replacing the bulb. This lasts longer than using an LED bulb on it’s own, as I’ve noticed regular bulb replacement fails a lot quicker. This can be used as a guide for W203 or 2001-2007 Mercedes C-Class Sedans.
