she is talking about locking/unlocking the car . not turning on the fog lamps while you are inside the car or driving.

Note: The surrond light (eye lid + fog ) only comes on if its night time or low light situation and when the car is unlocked.

hummm...ok
The U.S. setup maybe different, you guys have the keyless start which we dont... The U.S. remotes have the unlock lock trunk buttons and engine start key. Kinda sucks i know, but the difference in price (40K +) I'd rather have the cash in my pocket instead of the keyless Fob : > )))

Would not have figured out that from your photo. But don't tell that, there would be a lot more helpful answers if forum members did not know that.

yeah. It was funny watching the tone and response of everyone posting thinking he was a she. Too many horndogs on the forum Watch how the responses stop and change now that they found out...then the next gen of mbworld members come on and the cycle begins again.
