- I attempt for the first time to replace my 2013 W204 Mercedes wing mirror covers with New black covers and dynamic indicators.
How easy is it really ?
thanks for all your content. I found it really beneficial. I’m almost at the end of my project on the W204. Thanks.
Thank you very glad you found it of use..... mrix
Im SOO nervous when I tried to take my cover off I kept thinking I will break it....After watching, Maybe I'll try again? But you are 100% right, all the videos make it look like they walk up to it and it magically comes up without effort. Glad to know its not just me that thinks that a bogus claim lol. Thanks for the video!
Hi Patrick, a lot of these youtubers must go through the process first, which will make it easier knowing how and once removed it will losen a little , as you can see it is hard to get off but take the bull by the horns and go for it! best of luck.....mrix
Did you ever get to do it? I did it the other day and man it was way easier then I thought.
Perfect video for me! Am literally about to do the exact same job on mine and needed an honest video on how to do it and the difficulty. Thanks 👏🏼🙌🏼
All the very best of luck with it! its not rocket science but it can be a struggle especially if its the very first time they have come off... glad you found the video of use..... mrix
@@mrix I managed to do it! Rather straight forward to be honest… although I think it’s really because I watched your video first so knew what to expect. Thanks for the help 😊👍🏼
THANK YOU FOR THE TRUTH!!!
I'm about to change the puddle lights on my 2010 E350 and I tried to get the cover off. I thought I was doing something wrong. I was afraid I was going to break the cover. Thanks for your honesty. I will try again with a little more patience.
Hello and thanks, so many of the videos you see do tend to miss out the hard more difficult parts but they are the parts you want to know etc, all the very best.....mrix
@mrix I've tried a few more times. I just gave up. I really feel that if I put more effort into it, I will surely break it. It's just not worth all that. I'm going to let this rest for a while and try once again. When I'm in the right frame of mind. I'm really enjoying your videos.
Thank you for ur honesty as I have ran into other videos showing how easy it is and I'm trying to replace mine with black ones
Hi Adil, I have seen so many videos showing how easy it is, I think basically because they have tried and removed the covers many times to see how easiest to do it but the more you remove anything the easier and looser it becomes, as you can see by my attempts its not as easy as you may think, all the very best of luck with your cover replacements, mrix
@@mrix thx
I like the upgrades your doing, I have to say I prefer the ones you just fitted,, Keep up the good work
Hello and thank you good sir!
Great honest video! Got my mirror covers in today! I think i will buy a prying tool before attempting though haha! Looks impossible without one lol. Cheers
Thanks and all the very best when you attempt yours.... mrix
Great great video. A real insight into what and how long or hard things really take . Will pass on .excellent job
Hi, yes there are so many videos showing how easy it is to remove these covers but I am sure they have removed them already prior to their video, once you have removed them its far easier but if they have never been removed like on mine you can see its a struggle.... all the very best....mrix
glad you did not break the mirrors in the process, good job :)
Hi Divina A, I must admit the job was becoming far more difficult than first thought and the chance of breaking the mirror glass was causing me quite some anxiety ha ha, thanks mrix
u can just take the mirror parts off pry from outside, they will pop off. Then remove cover and when cover is back on just pop the mirror back.
Anche io ho sostituito gli indicatori di serie con quelli a led dinamico.....tutta un'altra cosa....e poi ho verniciato di nero lucido le due calotte : uno spettacolo !!!
When you say the glossy black caps, which caps do you speak of ? thanks mrix
got one today I take to a Machanic to put it
Good job mate! 🙏👍👍
Thank you..... mrix
Thanks for sharing MRix. Any chance if you can share the website / shop where you bought the new pair from please? I didn’t know the aftermarket pair comes with housing & can do a straight swap. My original pair got nicked😔 Cheers
These are the dynamic indicator lights from Ebay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/383272477388 and these are the black replacement covers from Amazon but this specific listing is currently unavailable at the moment www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08BKTRHFC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Did you buy the cover with the with the lighting already included
Hi, I purchased the black covers separate, was good value really, I think the covers and strobe indicator were only about £40 for everything.. to this day I have never had a issue with them and still working fine.... mrix
Have you still got the link where you got them cheers
Hi, I purchased them from ebay and like with many of their listing it now shows as a dead page, the search term for one was "Dynamic LED Wing Mirror Indicator Turn Signal Light For Mercedes W204 W212 W221" and for the covers they are no longer available from the specific dealer but here is the link www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08BKTRHFC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Where did you buy your new cover they look great
Hello I purchased them from amazon but I purchased the led lights desperately, they make so many different types, some display different colours, I have looked on the listing I purchased from but there are no more available, however there are similar types www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08BKTRHFC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@@mrix cheers
I’m sweating watching you
Is this for 2013 mercedes c300 4matic??
Hello, they are all pretty much the same for the W204 model, my vehicle is a 2013 c350, all the best mrix
i have mine to do wish me luck 🤞🤞😦
I wish you the very best of luck! please let me know if you had a struggle..... mrix
Prefer the original indicators
Personally I prefer the strobe effect but at the end of the days its always going to be personal preference..... mrix
Stick on ones much easier not all that fafe
Yes that is a option but as I changed for strobe indicators I was required to completely remove them anyway... mrix
