Ambient light air vent for w205
Hello people, I just found out that this air vent is pretty cool for our car. However, I concern how to install them into our w205 and how to plug the harness wire together?

Installation isn't hard. I pulled my console to vinyl wrap it, but for the life of me I'm not sure where those would plug in. There's a tutorial somewhere on this site for pulling the console apart.

Unlike the 2016 model, the 2017 model has ambient light on the center console, so would you need to power it from the fuse box? or can you just splice the power wire into the center console light wires?

I went ahead and ordered ambient lighting retrofit (door trim/center console). The local MB shop is going to install the lights and add the coding. Would the install void warranty? I presume that in the worst-case, the installation is reversible.

I did it 2 weeks ago.
took me 2 hours in total.
Most time went in getting the cable from the 2 outside vents to the center.
You need good tools to take out the vents though.
Small hooks where you can put some power on
