Fog Light Delete Inserts

[Mercedes-Benz E350]

Hi,

I have been working with Boss1815 to create fog light delete inserts that are the same size and shape as the factory ones, however, these have the honeycomb pattern opened up. The honeycombs are the same size, shape, and position as the factory ones. This part is being made on a 3D printer so there is some evidence of that in the final part. For example, the pull tab has epoxy added to it to ensure that during installation it will not break. Once it's in, it won't be a problem. So far there are around 20 cars (over the span of a few months) that have these inserts in them and none have yet broken or shown signs of wear. The plastic is a black ABS so it is very strong.

If you would like a set, the cost is $75 which includes shipping to the U.S. excluding Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Parts are made once the order is placed and typically ship out within a day or two (depends on order quantity). Money can be sent through PayPal to [email protected]

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Thank you!

I'm mulling over the idea of it.

Hi,

Thank you everyone that has so far ordered a set. Here are some installation instructions/tips:

1. Use an object that has a thin tip and is ideally not metal, so as to not scratch the plastic. Most have had great success with a Popsicle stick.
2. Insert the “tool” into the opening at the bottom of the insert, and lightly (not much force is needed) lift up the tool so push the pull tab up.
3. Pull forward and the factory insert will pop out.
4. Take the custom insert and align it at the top of the opening.
5. Lightly push the insert in until the pull tab is about to make contact with the lip inside.
6. Using the tool gently lift up the pull tab. Again, do not lift it very much, only a small amount is needed to clear the lip.
7. Push the insert fully in removing the tool at the same time.
8. The custom insert is now installed.

These are designed specifically for the 2013 model. Sorry, I cannot say whether or not they will work on a 2012.

Greetings.

Just ordered a set for my brother. We really like the product. I've gotten quite a few compliments.

Fast shipping and item is well packed!

I'll get some pics up soon.


GB218 ~ Now if I can only find my owners kit . . .

 

[KDR-1]

Ton of compliments here as well.

Those are nice.

Now that my car is on the way I can finally order a set.......these install from the outside of the grille, correct?

that is correct.

I heard that these are no longer available--is that true?

Yes, it's true. If Stefan starts making them again I'll let you know. His equipment is in a shipping container waiting to go to Serbia. He isn't sure if it is going to start making them again once he gets there. Shipping costs being the concern.

Someone needs to go visit him and fill their suitcase with these things......

 

[seca954]

I'm kicking myself in the butt for not ordering them.

Still waiting for him to resurface and understand what the international shipping damage is, and to see if a group buy to reduce the shipping gouge is possible.

At this point it doesn't seem likely that he is going to be making these anymore. Things could change, but right now he is on to other things. Last time I talked to him shipping would be somewhere around $40 - $50.
