A150 classic se 2008 1.5
Hi all Im Kate from Cambridgeshire. Bought a used 2008 Mercedes A150 Classic SE yesterday. Loving it so far. Need to change a headlight bulb, are they as easy as they say? And quoted £192 for a spare key from an auto guy, thinking get price from dealers and get from them.
Anyway looking forward to learning more about my car.

welcome to the forum,

Best to change the headlight bulbs in pairs and don't touch the glass with the fingers. Should be easy if all accessible.

You can get new keys/fobs from a dealership - always better to have a spare set.

Enjoy the car.

Hi Kate and welcome.
Dealer price for a key will be over £200. As mentioned speak to Replacement Mercedes Keys (RMK) in Small Heath Birmingham - great guys and very knowledgeable.
