w204 Facelift Foglamps

Okay, so I'm a bit confused here when searching for some MB's w204 c180 2013...if i check fog lamps half of the results are excluded but comparing the ones "with fog lamps" and the ones without shows no difference...they all have the same LED type bulb down on the grill...anyone can clear this for me?

Thanks

So, on the facelifted version the LED are replacing the old round Fog Lights?

In other words, all the mercedes 2011-2014 have fog lights which are LED, correct?

Yup exactly or the 2011 was pre facelift, but still got the fogs replaced by LED.

Not all 2011's are replaced by LED strip though. I have a 2011 with the round fog lamp. I prefer the round fog lamp anyway, since it produced a lot more light output when using an HID kit.

Also, you cannot turn on the front fog lamps manually in the LED version. In the LED version, the fog lamps are actually integrated in the headlights. You turn those on when you turn on the rear fog lamps. Can't turn them on separately like the pre-facelift models, which is quite annoying to me.

Thanks guys, makes sense now.

What about PDC and ILS/HighBeam Assyst and Daytime Running Lights?

From what I know PDC is standard option on 2011-2014 model and ILS with HighBeam Assyst and Daytime Running Lights are standard on the Xenon headlights...am I correct?
