W204 LED rear turn lights

I am trying to verify that European or UK model 204s with LED rear turn lights (packaged with Bi-Xenon headlights) are yellow, not red. My US model C300 has red LED rear turn lights and I would like to change over to yellow LEDs by purchasing Euro taillight assemblies. But before ordering them (I have the part numbers) I would like someone in Europe or the UK to verify by his own observation that they are yellow. Keeping in mind that the non-LED rear turn lights are yellow and I am not referring to those.

I live in Seattle and can order the Euro assemblies from the Vancouver BC dealer who will special order them from MB Canada in Toronto. Which means a trip to Vancouver to pick them up and that's why I want to verify everything beforehand.

Re: W204 LED rear turn lights

EU yellow, US red... don't know why, but BMW's rear turn signal LED's are also red for the most part, at least on the 5. Don't know if it is a US regulation.
