We're here today with Gareth Foley to show you how to replace the license plate bulb on a 2008 C300 Mercedes Benz.
Passing a state inspection isn't usually very difficult for a late model vehicle. What's the first thing to usually go? In my experience, bulbs like to start popping after a few years, giving you the inevitable fail.
Gareth will show you the best way to replace a Mercedes C300's license plate bulbs. The only tools required are a T20 torx driver and flat blade screwdriver.

Hallelujah! I have a 2009 C300 and I would get the error messages constantly on my left tag bulb but after smacking the bulb it would turn on. Last week, my right bulb message would appear but smacking it would not help so I followed these directions and voila! they both now work flawlessly.
I get so excited when instruction videos like this one are easy to understand and go through each step that even a dummy like me can understand. It took approximately 20-30 minutes.
Thank you very much. This video is highly recommended!
Thank you sir.. steps were right on the money...took about 10 minutes.. thanks for posting this video.
I have a 2010 E550 and these directions worked PERFECTLY!!! Bulb was a little loose so only time will tell if the fix works or i need to get a new bulb. Thanks.
Great explanation - worked that way as shown.
1 tiny advice: the clip removal becomes easier. by using a curved pliers or what we call telephone pliers with small tips you can push under the clips after first clip removal progress with a small, wide screedriver is achieved.
thanks a lot - from germany
My next Saturday morning project. A lot of work for one little bulb: I will change both when i take trunk lining off
Thank you very much! I followed the instructions to replace the bulb of my 2010 E350 Coupe. Everything worked well, but the plastic rivets in my car were slightly different and more difficult to take out. In the end, I was successful and the total cost was less than $1!!
At my first dealership job we got payed 0.3hr to replace any* peanut bulb, that came out to three dollars in my pocket before taxes.
The filaments get worn on these bulbs, if they're out and you tap them they work, but will go out again, we would replace the bulb and pull the contacts closer together to improve contact.
you have no idea of how much you help me and sorry my english :(
Makes me wonder if mine is just loose or I actually need a new one ima go check
Bloody hell ... what happened to the days of unscrewing one or two screws and replacing the bulb?? Two minute job. I can see now why I don't own a Mercedes.
If you want change LED Light box and not only LED bulb u have to make out the chrome trim and the piece behind it
All that just to change a little bulb(S)? That's insane..It is what it man and great video..
depends on quality expectations
Cheap one will get loose, rattle and so on. Here all parts were dry , rust free and fixed after 400.000 km in 8 years.
Thanks for the video... going to my mechanic today and hopefully he knows what hes doing and if not i will show this video lol
a very good guide
Thank you!
Thank you so much, just saved me a 100 bucks! Truly a hero
You're welcome, David! Happy to help!
Thanks for the great video, it saved me a lot of time! Can you please advise of the type of the replacement bulb? Is it a 5W one ?
Hello Petar, I provided a link below to the bulb used.

Thanks!
Ty for the video
Good instructions. Thx
thx a lot. very well done instructional vid. helped tremendously.
+Omari Bayi Always happy to help!
Awesome video. Thanks so much.
I'm fixing to do this on my 2009 c350 but I sure wish it was easier like in my volvo xc90 u just remove 2 screws from outside
Good look bruh 2023
I am looking to do this but wanted to get a couple of extra plastic clips if the break. I am not sure of the part number But think it is 0009914795 ?
Can anyone confirm?
Jeff Block Yes that is the correct part and it can be found here: www.fcpeuro.com/products/mercedes-trim-plug-0009914795
thanks.
Thanks for the demo. I have a loose bulb, and this I know, since I can go back and tap on it and it will light up again. Really annoying. This is as a result of the "stealership" doing a recall having to do with some possible corrosion back there. My wife agreed to take the car in, since I didn't want to set foot in the place.
Now sure enough, I have an issue. Not going to the dealership either.
Once again, many thanks. Now at least I know what to do if I decide to do it.
Happy to be of assistance --Kyle
spacesaverbob By all means do it. Not worth seeing that stupid error message every time you start the car. Buy a small pack of W5W bulbs, a screwdriver and the T bit and you're good to go.
Could please give me a name of bulb what i need to buy? I don’t want led i just want original one like yours... but i have no idea what kind of bulb to buy it.
What a pain effort. Remove the radio or climate unit is much much easier.
Good!
it says this part will not fit your Mercedes benz c300 2011 sport
You're doing it the hard way, no need to remove the liner.
Replace license plate build should take 5 mins, but based on this video, it’s craziness. Don’t know how any fool would by a Mercedes with the crap car they produce.
I have Mercedes S W221. Instead of plastic drills in the from surface, they are from the inside part.
It's very ilogical to change a light you must unmount too much components. This is only to give money to the mechanichs of the brand. Next car, japanese.
Common man at least say which year or model c300 on the title
Wow what a joke. All that to change the small light bulb? Mercedes is on crack.
