Anyone ever notice how dim and poor the interior lighting is inside our W201 190E and W124 300E and w126 cars? I have loved the car and hated the fact that at night in a dark parking lot you cant find a thing in the dark interior even with both front and rear interior lights on!

Well, I finally found a fix! After trying all sorts of different incandescent and LED festoon bulbs, I have finally found a bulb that is so very much brighter, not gaudy or hotter! The LED festoon bulb is awsome! You can get it in the 39 or 42 mm size and it is soooo much nicer now! I can see inside the car at night!

The bulbs are expensive $16-19 each, but they are LED, very bright, put off very little heat at all, less than the OEM bulb, and are the nice cool white color of the new Mercedes interior bulbs.

I got mine from a company online in St louis called superbrightleds.
www.superbrightleds.com but www.ledlight.com also has them. I would recommend anyone who is tired of teh dark interior check them out. I also found the most perfect instrument cluster lighting bulbs there too! Yes, i know all the dangers and I have worked on clusters for years, these bulbs are not too hot and they are a lot brighter! A lot! Very low heat. No melting the light paths.
PS: I wish I did, but I get nothing from either company and am not affiliated with either. I wish I was but I am not. The bulbs are pricey, but I have found them well worth in in both my MB cars.
