Is it possible to have daytime running lights?
I know many don't care for them but I'd like to at least have the option to
enable them on my 2000 W202. Anyone know if this is possible and how? Thx.

Buy a daytime running lamp control module, bracket, and wiring harness. The option was code 236.

Hum, I have a 2000 W202 and I want to get rid of my DRL, but I really don't have a clue how, since in the service manual the wiring diagrams aren'T the same for DRL equipped cars, I'm not sur it's easy to remove:S

Found out it's a $635 expense (module, harness, bracket). Ouch!

p.s. if you have a real Mercedes service manual, there are wiring diagrams for DRL equipped cars.

I'll have to check into it, it's a little complex, last time I read those it was to put my folding mirrors in the right fuse box slot.

It`s a cool feature, someday all cars may have it. Once again, Mercedes is first with the innovations.

I bought a service manual from the dealer itself
altough there wasn'T much interesting info on it, just basic service things I hated it
BUT, it had all the wiring diagrams, arranged in a pretty ackward way but you could find everything
So I kept all the diagrams on my computer and gave back the cd to my dealer because I wasn'T able to open any of the pdf files in it.
If you need them, send me a private message I'll arrangte somehting, you'lll owe me one
