  • Trailer Hitch for a 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK-350 Coupe

For example, if you need more space for cargo then you can install a roof rack like the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Crossbar System part # RRVA118B-2, part # RRRLKVA,...

  • First, if your 1999 Mercedes CLK 320 convertible does not already have a trailer hitch you will need to install one using # C11815. It fits Coupe and Cabriolet Convertible models but only if they are built on the 208 chassis. It looks like in 1999 they were all the 208 chassis so no worries. For a bike carrier you will need one that is compatible with a Class I trailer hitch. The Curt # C18085 is a great option since it holds the bikes at the wheels making it compatible with many bike...

  • Will 30 Watt Putco Optic 360 High-Power Fog Lamp Bulbs # P250011W Get too Hot for 2008 Mercedes CLK
  • According to the owner's manual for the 2008 Mercedes CLK, the original fog lamp bulbs were 55 watt halogen bulbs. The Putco Optic 360 High-Power Fog Lamp Bulbs, # P250011W, are 30 watt LED bulbs. LED bulbs produce very little heat and significantly less heat than the halogen that was originally installed so you should have no problems with this bulb being too hot for the fog lamp component.
