    I like them. They'll complement window tints and any other black parts on your car. If I didn't want LED tail lights, I'd probably get these since they're the same shape as the OEM tails and the closest thing to blacked out.

    I just did. I purchased the clear MHW for my silver '99 C230 and they looked great. The quality of these are very good and are actually heavier than the stock lenses as well as built in Germany. I purchased the black lenses today for my newly acquired black '99 C43.

    This may just be my opinion, but our OEM smoked lights are smoked enough. Unless of course you own a pre-facelift model.

    Where did you purchase all your tail lights from and how much were they?

    The first set of clear MHW I purchased from US seller on eBay for $120 USD. They were relocating and getting rid of many items. I was lucky to have purchased the only new set that he had. The black set of MHW I purchased off eBay for $117 USD. They are shipped from Latvia for $39 USD. The link is the same seller as Yujin posted but they list smoke and black as two different listings. They did this to gain greater search results even though they are the same item.

    Cheers,

    Darcy

    Here is the eBay link but they are no longer on sale. They usually put them on sale again within a day or so.

    I don't but I know that they were no longer going to carry them when they relocated. That is why they were getting rid of their new old stock. The clear MHW that are currently listed on eBay are far overpriced. I contacted the person in regards to reducing the price but he was an ass about it. He is asking $300/pair which is over double the price of any other sellers. MHW are no longer produced as they stopped production years ago.

    Yes, they are definitely genuine as they have the MHW logo on them as well as they were in the factory MHW packaging. Not many people are selling them and I found one website other than eBay. Check out this link. These are the same ones that I had on my C230.

    Yes, those are definitely real as that is the buyer that is charging way too much in my opinion. I can say that he is the only one that has the red MHW taillights that I have seen thus far.

    They also have them here but they are a little more expensive.

    His listing has a best offer feature and I know that he has had this red set for almost 2 years now. Good Luck

    This is his last set and that is why he won't budge on the price.

    I blacked out my tails and I love the look of them. See if I can get a pic up.
