Newbie questions 07 C230 Sport

Anyone know exactly what this does? I assume the bi-xenon do not turns or move like other cars. Also Ipod intergration, does that charges the Ipod while in use? The blue tinted window, it looks good and blocks some UVs, but as far as glare and heat does it block as well??

those type of fog lights are "smart" and when you are going to turn (left or right by using your turn indicator), the fogs move towards the direction of the turn to illuminate that area before you turn, adding a certain level of safety and visibility to your turn point.

bone stock E55 AMG

the 1st i've seen was on early 90s maximas...
instead of fog, they utilized sidemarker (much larger than 203) and it really helped when turning at nite...

I never use fog lights, especially here in LA. So in order to use them, i have to manually turn on fogs so i can take advantage of this feature?

What dealership did you go to?

Please warn me because it looks like your dealer cheated you there!

Looks like they didn't give you an owner's manual.

Hahhahah, that's explain it. FYI. Be careful though, make sure you search before posting a question that already been discussed, or someone will tell you STF.

Nice ride! What did you do to your headlight and sidemarker? Tinted? Where did you get your windows tinted? I am debating on the tint, the blue looks so cool. I might be willing to tint if I can find a darker blue tint.
