E550 Coupe
stuck in sports mode with after market struts?

So i have eibach springs on my e550 coupe right now. Its great, but i hate when it bottoms out over a bump. Too harsh.

So i wanted to some blistien shocks for my car. blistien 35-141846

if i got these, would i be stuck in sports mode the whole time?
i think the oem struts have a thing where they plug in for electric dampening.
and most after market struts dont. blistiens website does say they do fit but i would like to double check.

thanks!

If you take off the OEM struts, your car will default to Sport mode.

Noone makes a bypass or DDC delete for this car. I looked into making my own but it got complicated, need to have a good understanding of electrical relays etc.
