C300 with DIgital lights
Does anybody in the USA have the digital lights and can tell me what is enabled in it? Like does it mark when changing lanes, or show warning for red light or pedestrian walking? I take it, the whole turning off pixels to block brightness to cats in front of you still isn't active? It's either auto highlights or it all turns off when there's any cars infront of you?

So far, this is what the Digital light has shown to me (US model)
- during Assisted Driving (Lane keep, distronic and all the perks of the Driving assist package) if you tap on the blinker to change lane the Digital lights paint a lane change beam on the asphalt.
- in any condition of driving, if your lane keep/warning is enable, the digital lights will paint a blinking triangle to show you drifting out of the lane and suggesting corrective action. (will also do that if you are trying to change lane during assisted driving and put your turn signal on)
- the system will warn you of a pedestrian walking on the road with a series of circles on the asphalt pointing at the pedestrian and flashing the high beams.
The rest of the advertised perks (selective high beam, stop sign and red light recognitions are not yet implemented on US models)
Hope it helps

@benz_car_coding on IG coded my w206 and can activate ALL digital light functions in the US immediately, probably for cheaper than the Mercedes Me store if they offer in the future.
Some states like CA currently allow all intelligent light features but it seems like MB has locked them for all US cars.

I bet MBUSA has the rest of the digital light features ready for you as a "digital extra" on the Mercedes Me store once US regulations allow for EU intelligent light features.
