Thank you Scott, most helpful. I found I could do the job by turning the steering to full lock & removing 4 trim clips & one screw to pull the liner back far enough without removing the wheel. My light was smashed following a trip.
Hi scott it's a great video which really help me and save money thank you... if you can make video on roof sill trim will be great and tell us where we can buy...
hello. I wonder how do you get that white/grey plastic clip away under the bumber? That is not oem like you said, does is come out just pulling or what?
petu laine Petu the grey clip is called a "Christmas Tree" as that's what it looks like. It just pulls out but it takes a bit of force. I put it in there as the OEM type went missing. I think it broke when I scraped the under bumper panel on a low kerb when parking and the clip fell out.
Hi i have a c220 2012 and it's one of them twin fog light trims which has one screw from outside and want to take it off and paint it.can you tell how can i take it off please
From memory there's a screw behind that access from behind the trim or a clip you compress to pop it out. You need to get behind the plastic trim in the wheel arch.
It's a simple job. The fuel filter is usually on the top of the motor but will be in a different position depending on the motor. I have a video of how to replace the fuel filter on the W639 Vito. Check that out as the process is the same. You'll find it in the list of videos on the channel.
Dan Cross Thanks for the compliment Dan. I'll keep them coming as things come up. I don't like seeing people pay enormous amounts of money for what is often simple work. Regards, Scott
ok. So yours is a petrol engine? I have a diesel and all my videos relate to the diesels. Your fuel filter may well be at the back of the vehicle. Search on some of the forums like www.benzworld.org. You should find the information.
B Brown Yes it's embarrassing but I was recovering from broken right ankle surgery and the more robust shoes hurt too much. Subsequent videos have me in more acceptable foot wear both in colour and protection!
Son Hoang You need to search online. eBay will have something. www.ebay.com.au/itm/MERCEDES-W169-W245-W212-W204-X164-W164-C219-Fog-Light-Driving-Lamp-Left-NEW-/281478248460?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item418969380c

Thanks Scott,
Now I know how to access the fog lamps in order to clean up the haze from the lens, so
as to make my car more handsome looking.
+Ronnie Tan Glad I could help out. Regards, Scott
Is it enough to remove only the two plastic clips to change the H11 bulb?
Remove as many clips as you need to get access.
How do I remove them when I habe oval fog lights? Its a W204 oval fog lights and the screws heads are inside and no room to work on
I also have the oval fog lights as shown in the video.
own 2008 mercedes benz c200 kompressor. is the fog light the h11 bulb? thanks

MrScott52 ok. thank you very much for your reply and video. This video helped me a lot. I didnt have to touch the bumber, what I was scared....
Everyone does this from the right side, show the driver left side and how to remove the windshield washer tank out the way to get at the bulb. Thanks.
Franky it's exactly the same and just as quick. The washer reservoir doesn't interfere.
@@ScottElliott152 It is quite different on the driver side. I had to remove the two bumper screw to move it forward as to avoid the washer reservoir.
@@stickledrone1565 perhaps the RHD models are different. I didn't have an issue doing the LHS.
@@ScottElliott152 No issue to remove the bulb but to take the whole assembly out required a bit more work.
@@stickledrone1565 ok I see. I made the video on how to do the bulbs. If I do one for the whole assembly I'll do the LHS.
okey but I do it in the front, take 3 torx T15 open and the nyou can change the bulb. it takes 5 minutes ☺

As scott said, get in from behind is so much easier.

Great scott ! Thank you for make this clear.
Glad I could help John. Regards, Scott

No. Have you looked at my video for the W639?
