Pictures of your w205 ILS Headlight Connector Needed for Different Years

Hello

I am attempting to retrofit ILS to my vehicle and some pictures from you guys with ILS already would be helpful. This wont take more than 5 minutes for you to do.

I would like pictures of any and all vehicles.

One from each year would be cool.
2015, 2016, 2017 2018 if possible. c400 c450 or c43 all good. MUST BE USA Car. Canada may be ok but i really want usa car as we have different headlight laws that remove features. Euro cars can post if you like but i believe I already know what you have.

All i need you to do is pop hood and take a picture of the gray headlight connector for the left side and right side. Please let me know which picture is which side. I would appreciate focused pictures on the wires coming out of the connectors. I need to see how many wires and what colors they are.

C300 with ILS is acceptable too.

Thanks in advance guys. Id appreciate the help.

dont worry about it. I believe you if you know what you are talking about.

i really want to see 2015,2016, and 2018 models as they had option of ordering ILS on its own. i am not sure if the stereo camera you have replaces the level sensors or if the level sensors are just required for the euro ILS version that is more involved. If we dont require level sensors, the USA ILS upgrade from static LED is a piece of cake.

do your head lights on both the 2016 and 2017 do a dance on start up? like go up down and then auto level?


also can you confirm both front ILS headlights on driver and passenger side have the same amount of wires? should be 8 total wires going to each connector.

Thanks

Yes, both 2016 and 2017 are "dancing" on start up. 8 wires on each side
