DIGITAL LIGHT ANIMATION AND PROJECTION PROBLEM
Hello, I have a problem with my digital light lamps. I come from Europe. my car is from production 12/2021 c300 in the amg package. Recently, there has been an option to purchase the DIGITAL LIGHT WITH PROJECTION FUNCTION package in the Mercedes store. I purchased it correctly, it is activated but neither the projection nor animation works. For the hello/goodbye animation option I have the slider turned to on and the same for all projection 3 option
(I would like to emphasize that this is not an individualization package (excellence), but a separate digital light package with a projection function.)
The car has the following VIN:
318 - DIGITAL LIGHT
30U - Preparation for projection function for lines
42U - Preparation for projection function for symbols
43U - Preparation for projection function for animations
P35 - DIGITAL LIGHT
MBUX software version: rl_ntg7_e330.602_23063ac3
Please help, how to run it?

Hoping I get corrected by others but I believe this is disabled by dealership due to EU road laws. Basically its a distraction and cannot be used.
I have the same package on the model I have on my car (UK - AMG Premium Plus). If you want to have this you can get this coded in by a 3rd party specialist. This can be done locally or aboard.

W206 C300
I also live in Europe and luckily only tried a free month subscription for the Digital Light with Projection Functions, as I found out that only the welcome/goodbye projections (only digital rain) work in my car.
It has P35 and 318 option codes, but only has the 43U option, not 30U and 42U.
Mercedes does not advertise that 30U and 42U are also required from factory, so I am happy that I did not pay for 3 years.
On German forums, people have gotten this to work by updating the MBUX to the E330 software version, which you already have, so that cannot be your issue.
Maybe other control modules in your car needs an update as well?
@EleBest Could you please write here what is required to purchase for you to remotely code a W206 and what you charge for this coding service?
I presume that one would need to purchase an OBDII interface.

Before even revealing this to me, they told me I cannot afford to activate nav. Very weird encounter and confusing since they upload the videos and provide contact info for services.
Their prices are very high for basic remote coding done with an ENET cable (says the cable’s for BWM but worked for me) and a laptop. I had my 2022 and 2023 coded by @_simon_benz_ on Instagram. I have recommend him and his services several times on the forums, as I had a 10/10 experience twice.

I personally had very negative experiences with @EleBest. The videos they upload (like the w206 navigation) are misleading advertisement. I reached out to them and they told me that the entire head unit (basically the whole screen and computer behind it) must be swapped. This is not remote coding.
Before even revealing this to me, they told me I cannot afford to activate nav. I still have the WhatsApp message where @EleBest tells me to “**** off.” Very weird encounter and confusing since they upload the videos and provide contact info for services.

1. If my memory is correct, your 206 has no navigation, you want to activation navigation, if it is the case, then we might need change "entire head unit" for your case, it is head unit only, no including the screen. You may misunderstand. And we never advertising this job can be done remotely only without hardware. Our business has two types: Hardware+software or software only, If the job involves hardware, the price will be high, I am just state the fact to you, no other meaning.
2. BMW enet cable is the same coding cable for Mercedes 223, 206, etc, surely if you want to use Mercedes enet cable is also good, but that cost 10 times high, and exactly same cable. This is proven by our 3 years coding experience on these new models. Since you did some coding with others for you 206, do you mind sharing what coding device you use?
3. Post the screen shot here if you don't mind, I may explain a bit more here, hope to remove your unhappy feeling with us.
4. Simone from Italy is a friend of mine too, Happy to hear you enjoy his service.
5. We are not the only one who can do these coding, but we are site sponsor here, if you want advertising for others, you better ask him join this forum, he will get more business for sure.
