Default Rear LED bulbs

When I bought my 2003 E Class, the O/S/R light was cracked. Water got in and damaged two (1 side light and fog light) LED bulbs. I bought a replacement light, but my question is can the bulb cluster be bought with all the new bulbs in it from Mercedes or else where, or can individual LEDs be fitted?

at a certain point, MB transitioned from incandescent, single bulb replacements, over to
the packaged design (which sounds like your's may be). MB then began selling them as one
complete unit, making it difficult to replace one small, failed part.

If you check the parts diagrams here, you should be able to easily determine which design
your car has.

Thanks for that Raymond, I'll have a go at that. I don't have a problem changing the whole cluster of bulbs rather than single ones, I just can't seem to see them listed anywhere.

i've not come across any examples in recent years where MB has a cluster of LEDs and made
it possible for end user to replace them individually. for example, the wing mirrors are the
most vulnerable....but the whole array must be pulled and replaced. same for the center/
HIGH brake light.....just to point out a couple.
