i was considering these lights but not sure if i like the clear housing althouh they are black inside. you guys with these kinda of aftermarket lights do they cause a error of the light in the dash to go on as if a bulb is burned out?

here are the light

Your car is black right. i think thay will look just fine. As for the light in the dash, most if not all these aftermarket housings come with the correct resistance so im guessing it shouldn't be a problem. But i gota tell ya SEARCH we started a thred last year and its all about aftermarket headlights & taillights theirs a lot of good one their. I strongly suggest finding it.

i did a search and most of the led tails didnt say anything about light in dash . i m looking at the picture of these and they do have bulbs in the center and led's on top and bottom. hmmmm

LMAO and if your check engine light comes on do the same thing
Seriously they do look good in the black and on your black 202, I have installed LED lights with no problems.

I wonder how should those look on my silver W202 (or should I buy red ones)?

Also, is it possible to change eventually broken LEDs individually?

LEDs are practically impossible to break,and they last FOREVER

I agree with you, in theory.

Well, you can't always pick a color of your future car, especially if it's gonna be used one.

Hey Logic. I have those Led tails. Ive had them for a while now, no problems. Those are cheap, I bought those for about $280. Check out my pics i have up. They look so sick at night IMO.

just decided to get the clear with black ones like ssdesigns although i liked jstrats too ..... added bonus my dad picked my name in the christmas drawing we had and he said he would buy them SWEEEEET . will post pictures depending on weather here since its winter :(

Logic
12-16-2008, 06:27 PM
ok my x-mas gift arrived and all is well. i have inspected these and they are actually better looking in person. since its winter here i might have to wait till spring to put these on :confused: but i have the patients to wait hehehehe. the only strange thing is you can see a small pc type board with two led on them but i guess thats ok . one of the pictures show it but is hardly noticable unless you are really looking at it. anyways my tail lights came with a 10% off coupon and who ever has been waiting for a good deal my present to you guys is the promotional code to the coupon . this promotion code gives any one 10% off anything @ k2 . so if you been putting this off now is the time .... promotion code is K2-110109 it is good till the end of january 31st. i paid 136.00 for my lights so it will save you 13.60 off more on the lights if you decide to get tail lights too. MERRY X-MAS .

Those are on both lights?, looks like a night light photo cell, why did they put it so you could see it?
any way I'll bet you won't wait till spring to put them on, probably tomorrow:cool:

i dont think there a photo cell there are two leds on them i m sure there part of the lights ... as far as putting them outside i guess it would have been easier to do that and trying to make a piece fron the inside since there might be room restrictions.

Logic

like benzalot said i couldn't wait till spring . since it was a nice 34 degress here i figure what the hell. the only thing was it took me a while since i had to uninstall my fiberglass enclosure and amp in the rear panels. i also found out its alot easier to take out the side carpet panels on each side to make it easier to work. as far as the lights they fit pretty good , the only thing that made it alittle hard was aligning the screws up threw the back and making sure the light lines up with the body lines. and since it was cold didnt want to over tighten and break anything. Well here are the results:
