amber. Am I mistaken.

Try to find a silver bulb that illuminates amber. These look best in clear corners. No "egg yolk" effect.

May want to try Hoen. I never bought any of these so I can't give you any recommendations. Some people on a couple of Mercedes forums have used them and like them, especially the Xenon-match bulbs.

No experience with LED replacements but if you go that way, make sure what you buy are plug & play so you don't get lamp errors coming up on the instrument panel. Maybe some else here has used them and can give you some feedback.
