Not for the W111 but have purchased some for the W113 and they were just fine. Fitted well and whilst not having the depth of a full chrome, were good enough.

I have seen these on a convertible under restoration, they actually look and fit pretty good. Wouldn't use them on a car in mint condition because of the lack of depth and originality though. But for a nice driver its a decent alternative.
