I have noticed that the bulb has gone on my headlight on/off switch, i think it lights up when the fog lights are turned on, ive just been to the mercedes dealership and they dont have any "very strange" where would be the best place to source a bulb....
thanks tazzy....

Hi,
Remove the bulb yourself and go to a decent motor factor, thats what i would do. I only go to the dealer as a last resort.

i think it lights up when the fog lights are turned on,

It lights up ONLY when the rear fog light is turned on, lights are turned on first then the switch is pulled out by 2 stops (or clicks)

is it the one in the center of the knob, or above and right of the knob. if the latter i think they are part of the switch module and not replaceable :0 it`s an mot fail as well.
