I created this video as a REAL step-by-step tutorial for changing / replacing OR upgrading the rear tail lamps on a first generation Mercedes-Benz CLS. In this video I personally upgraded my tail lamps from the pre-facelift lamps to OEM LED tail lamps from Mercedes. This requires the purchase of CLS tail lamp modules, which I discuss in the video.
IF you do NOT want to upgrade and only want to replace your current tail lights, regardless if you have the older style or newer style lights already in your car, all of these steps will be the same for you! You can just ignore the 1 step of adding plug-and-play tail lamp modules!
There are shorter videos on youtube showing the same thing, but this is the only one that shows you every single step from start to finish without cutting out any important bits for beginners and those with little experience like myself. I included everything I did down to screwing in every single bolt!!! You will NOT find a more comprehensive video or post anywhere!
If this helped you, please help me by hitting that thumbs up button! :)

Tail Lamp Modules: Purchase from Frenchy on MBWorld forum.
Update: I talked to Frenchy on Facebook. He does not want to give out his personal email for module requests. He is still active on the MBWorld site. He prefers you message him through there or join the "Mercedes CLS W219" Facebook group and make a post asking to purchase modules. He is on there as well. Hope this helps all of you!!
