nop , im doing the face lift also right know, waiting for the 2012 head lights to come in, had my carbon vented dads hood cut and modified to match the new lights and had the fitment tested on my friend 2012 c63, the fenders stay the same so dose the front bumper if you dont wish to change it, i ordered the dtm bumper like fares car without the side markers and with carbon lip and led, so know the front end will look some how as the 2012 dtm c63,

basically you need just a hood to install the new light, concerning the wiring question i have still no idea how is it going to go but im sure it can be done as their are some on my friends with 2 c63s have done it .

btw if you go on the german ebay ,you can also find the face lifted dash board for 600 eur and the screen with the buttons for 1600 eur and the new steering wheel for cheap, also the ac vent relocation part behind the dash is available for sale on the german ebay. so basically you could update your whole car exterior and int if you wish so.

the only thing im struggling with right now is trying to retro fit the keyless go with the push start button because my car is not equipped with it. and you cant get the amg traction button beside the shift **** on the 2012 as it is a different transmission. that is were i got to so far .

I'm interested in doing this also because I both need a new front bumper cover and have a spare CF hood to throw at it. Is there anything my SA can get or print out for me that would help out re. the wiring?

Would a wiring diagram of the sub-harness to the headlight for both the pre- and face lifted versions help?

Hi there, I have my self converted a 09 to a 2012 facelift... it is my daily... still have not figuerd out the wiring... I got my headlamps to wrok on low beams only... if there is any kind of an update regarding this matter count me in... I did, hood, bumper, front grill, head lamps, oilcooler duct (to fit 2012 bumper). the list is much longer than that but those are the basics...

Sohlberg - I'll have an answer on the wiring diagram around the end of the month. My SA (a friend) won't be back until then. I'm proceeding with the facelift also so together we all might be able to figure it out.
