You have to pop the black cover off the back of the lens housing, then you can see the bulb socket.

Do you have the PIAAs? I replaced my bulbs with an LED cluster and they are ok. Blueish white light, but not as bright as I expected. I might need to spring for a bigger LED.

Actually went thorugh the same thing and just had it done two weeks ago on the c230 at a benz dealership for 12 bucks a bulb. they also replaced the foglights to white so that way it matches when I turn the front and fogs on. total was like 50 and they installed for free. Also this is important. Mercedes did this for me today, there was a recall on the drive pulleys for the 06,07 c-class's (with the V6's no kompressors) and replaced them with the same renn pulleys I had but replaced the bearrings since they tend to get extremely worn out. they did it for free so go in an ask them about the drive pulley recalls.

Do you have the MBZ recall number associated with the pulley replacement on your invoice? I'd like to refer to it.
