Here’s how to change the bulb in the glove compartment of the Mercedes E-Class W211: First, open the glove compartment, and using a plastic spatula, remove the small light fixture located on the left side of the compartment. Our YouTuber had a wide availability of LED bulbs, but you can find one, for example, at luxlight for $6.91 plus shipping.

However, be careful not to touch it with your hands, or you will significantly shorten its lifespan. Remove the old bulb, insert the new one, check if it works by turning on the ignition, and if everything is okay, you can put it back in place.

The operation is complete.
