Bought a C63 night before last. Love it!

Silver, black Leather, fully optioned. I missed my M5 S2 but this I like even more.
A quick question. The headlight/parking/fog light switch. I've figured out all the functions and the actual switch knob illuminates. Is the surround supposed to illuminate as in the symbology around the outer edge?
Thanks all.

"Is the surround supposed to illuminate as in the symbology around the outer edge?" I don't understand your question, please re-clarify.

i think what he is saying is that the symbols surrounding the Light Knob does not light up.
Such as "Auto, Parking, etc.."

I think the answer is no. the surround of the headlight switch does not light up.

They should, I had a 09 C300, and the indicator icons for the lights lit up. My 10 C63 don't, but in the cluster they do.

You have it. The icons in the surround or bezel are not illuminated.
