W220 Stop Lamp Replacement

Post by TheMadRacoon »

Hi all,

I need to change the stop lamp on an HK delivered but 625 (Aus spec) W220 S320 (yr 2000). I don't have the car manual (in storage with other things) so I did a search and came across this info site:

http://www.mercedesmedic.com/lights/#w220

It says the stop lamp is LED. I hadn't looked closely before from the outside so hadn't noticed that it wasn't an incandescent light bulb. If it is an LED, what are the specs... I guess one answer is to talk to MB Spares as presumably not something I'd find at Repco / SCA / Autobarn ? :)

Does anyone know of hand?

Well, I found out it's not just a single LED. This benzworld post is useful, so am sharing here:
