They're OEM replacements.

depo makes the aftermarket oem replacement parts that will get used if your insurance company fixes your mercedes after an accident.

so they are probably ok. but it's ebay.. so who knows. but for 20 bucks how can you go wrong?

just not feeling japanese enough for ya? you actually expect someone to look at your sidemarkers for turning?

they'll work for what you want. brightness/longevity is dependent on the bulb not the housing.

ps. replace said bulb when you buy it.

I've seen good long-lasting results from depo stuff...the foglights are extremely popular.

Do you have the OEM switch?

^ Ok I didn't make much sense, lol.

Scratch what I asked about the switch...I was going back and forth on forums on my phone at work and wasn't paying attention much so when I got back on my phone hours later I thought I was still on a post where somebody was asking a foglight question and finished my post with that question...completely unrelated. Good day. Hope the side markers work out lol.

They're all over online...they even have the measurements from the molding and inside of the fender so you know exactly where to put the hole, and its spelled template. I'll try to find the write up tonight.

The difference is mad JDM-ness from the OEM lights. The only actual "JDM" part on my car are the CTR side markers.
