DYNAMIC TRUNK LIGHTBAR installed on 2015+ Mercedes W205 C-Class Sedan
In this video, I remove the oem stock chrome trunk trim on a 2016 Mercedes-Benz W205 C300 Sedan and replace it with a dynamic LED trunk light bar from DMP Car Design.
This mod should work on all 2015+ W205: C300, C43, and C63 sedans.

Looks cool, but I'd prefer a mod that change the OEM third break-light to LED/Dynamic style.

Your c-class has a lot going on, and I mean a lot. Isn't my type of mods but I see there's a lot of people who like it
Good tip to prevent double sided tape from re-sticking during uninstall, squeeze a few puffs of baby powder in the crack between the tape and the car to cover the adhesive. Doing so will prevent it from reattaching itself to the surface you're taking it off of.
Looks good although a bit out a place. Like its not supposed to be there.

Dude, this is beyond awesome. I don't know but i think Mercedes have something to highlight here, cuz this fit right. Even though you got Porsche and Audi similar with the long brake lights, it still seems the merc has its own thing going. Its dope.

I have a day job that pays me well and I do KZread on the weekends. I make a KZread video once and it lives on the internet forever and it keeps making me money while I sleep. If I don’t feel like making videos, I don’t need to and I’m still making money on previous videos. If I opened up a shop, I’m basically replacing 1 job with another job (a crappier one) that requires me to rent a place, pay for utilities, get certified and license, work for people, do installs all the time, be there all the time and spend a lot of energy. A shop sounds “cool” but it is a terrible idea for me and sooooo much riskier compared to what I’m doing now that has zero overhead and I have a lot more time to chill. And I probably make more than owning a shop. Owning a shop, you don’t make anything until you put in tons of manual work and a lot of hours. And after you pay all your bills...then whatever is left is your profit. You basically start in a hole every month. No thanks.
Pretty cool mod!!🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Looks awesome! Great job.
Looks clean man!
That looks way better then I imagined. Good work man
the reflection on the wing is a little annoying tbh and id try to find a way to turn off ur OEM third brake light cuz It looks like those civics with a wing brake light and the third brake light both on.
Man oh man this mod is dope. If only they had this for Hyundai Sonata

Very cool, my car looks quite similar to yours especially now that I just bought this. Haha thanks for the great video, looking forward to receiving it! If you haven’t seen already, Singapore Mercedes Parts on Facebook is selling oem style smoked sequential rear signals (2020 style) for $800ish shipped to U.S. I bought them for mine and they look fantastic but unfortunately I need to send them back to have the proper U.S. plug installed so be sure to specify if you order. I was still able to see the light and it is top quality. Keep up the great work!👍🏻
