seems it belongs to C-Class and not S-Class.

if it is, tell me your vin and the part number of that light.

its a aftermarket tail light for a c-class with the s-class look. i dont have the partnumber or vin nubmer but my problem is that i cant get the connection connected. i'm wondering if anyone has done this process of the 05 c-class and did some hard wiring for this install that can help me out.

robohopar, I feel your pain! I've posted a couple of questions on here and there's nothing like getting ignored or someone at least not offering to help. When you say your tail lights aren't plug and play are you saying that the plugs on them perhaps have 6 plugs instead of the standard 4? If that's the case, your new tail lights are German (European) spec - US lighting systems are different. If that's what your question is referring to or something different?

Help would come quicker if the question of the person trying to help is answered.
