Fibre Optic Lighting

Is it possible to change the color of the fiber optic lighting in a 06 S class?; I'd like to perhaps change the color or add more fiber optic lighting.

If you are referring to interior ambient lighting for this MY, you can only adjust brightness. To change see here: https://mbworld.org/forums/s-class-w...eir-221-a.html

If you trade it in for a 2010-2013, you get 3 colors.

Yes, but only one color, orange.

This is what I'm using. If you have the lighted door sills ($950 option), it matches.




Cool video on this:

Thank you. I love the orange, very warm color. My TL has three blue lighting effects so I was hoping the S550 did aswell.

Jason, how much of your car did you add after purchase? Looks like you have the best of every feature.

Not much, it had the sills on it already. Just added AMG floor mats, and the front Mercedes plate basically. Oh, and a front camera that automatically turns on below 3mph to spot curbs!

It's a kit I put together. It works with the midcity Video on demand with an extra input for a cam. I call offer it now, but just haven't had time to do write-up. Give me a call or text me and I'll shoot you a video of it working. I did show Mike already.

Jason, Tell them it's TWO settings. I can do a video of mine with the toggle setting instead of the automatic change at 3mph.

Yea, forgot. You can set the front cam to work by holding down the button on steering wheel, or 2nd option is for it to come in automatically below 3 mph (what I did), and also same button will toggle the DVD whiles moving on/off.
