So getting the SAM reprogramed does more than just fix the foglight issue?Before a SAM reprogram you have the left fog light on all the time and the bottom brake lights half on? I didn't know that I thought the only problem was the fog, but hey I'm always learning.

The photos Caligreenzzz posted are indeed the way these vehicles are supposed to look, and this is how they look from the factory - EU or US. I'd take a photo of mine, but Caligreenzzz has posted more than enough fully accurate photos.
I think this thread is pretty much settled.

Yes, without reprogramming the SAM the fog is stuck on and the brake lights are lit up (but more dimly according to Dellmon, which does make sense).

I wish Wipple would tell me how to do it local, I have access to Star Diag and Xentry
I'll pay $200 if he would give me coding instructions

I've also emailed him and pm'd him, and no response yet. I'm in SoCal, hopefully we can find someone to do this for us locally.

The bottom tail bulbs are still partially lit. This is not OEM spec. These should be off completely and you should only have the 2 LED bars running.
I would be pissed if I tried this after reading the first post and then realized it wasn't correct still.

The 2010 c300s w/ prem pack II come w/ LED tails, my 10' c300 sport doesnt have them, could I order the 2010LED tails for less or is the 2012 LEDtails my only option?

My 2011 C300 does not have LED's either...but I think you could get it with the lighting option to include bi-xenon's and rear LED's. Can't I just swap out mh regular 2011 lights with 2011 led lights? Thanks.
