I was under the impression that I didn't have any as the ground wasn't illuminated at all .

But they are there and such is the useless 5W 501 capless .

Get some 501 led upgrades or go set of 4 led projectors ( with any recommendations ) for my S204 .

I just upgraded mine to projector lights. You are right the original ones give no light. £8 off ebay for two.

I have similar, but Mercedes rather than AMG. I don't think they give enough puddle light, but herself likes them (and in theory it's her car) so they're staying.

What do your lights look like as there seems to be two main types ?

My original ones looked like this. I have a A209 though. Did have to file the rads off the corners on the door trim to get them to fit as they were tight 6F733FF6-2E70-4075-B9CE-164B4F409F83.jpeg 7436C012-033F-4C8B-A190-2D98ACDF4222.jpeg

Mine have the most stupid streak of clear lense with 0 to the ground vertical light output .

What we're they thinking !

I've never looked at the ground, whether illuminated or not, as I've got in or out of my car :geek:
