E320 No Under Hood Light

Nov 29, 2005 3 Replies

Both of my American cars (Tahoe and Corvette) have lights on the underside of the hood that come on when the hood is raised (mercury switch I suppose). The Mercedes doesn't (2000 E320) which is very odd. Seems like a feature everyone would want and a luxury car would certainly have. Had to find a flashlight last night to assist putting windshield fluid in.



Anyone know of a good aftermarket source of a product that would be good here? I suppose I could just go to a Chevy dealer and buy the assembly that's in the Vette.

Not surprising, but disappointing. I would've thought Merc would think of one of those, looks like the old man installed it himself.
