Headlight switch question
I have a 2009 c300 with the headlight switch going bad (intermittently turning headlights off at night while driving, turning on in bright daylight and also constant on/off cycles in bright daylight)
I am wondering if it is possible to replace the standard switch (turn off automatic, turn on headlights, pull back for fog lights) to a European assembly which has the fog lamp wired up as a separate button on the left (accessible in auto) or if something in STAR would prevent this?

Or replace the OEM switch like I did on my 09 C300 4matic and see if that cures the problem.

Thats what I'm trying to figure out. Officially, they have all of the same functions, just the fog lights are remapped to a different place. The unit is the exact same so I would imagine the harness is also. But I am unsure. Guess I'll experiment and get back to everyone on this
