Wow, I might actually have to get a set of those new tail lights!! They look sweet!

V8Turbo, nice car! How much does gas cost over there? And how do you drive that thing around all the bicycles and mopeds?

C63 newbie

I just took delivery of my new 2011 C63 on Tuesday. It is Palladium Silver with the black AMG premium leather interior. It has the lighting package, carbon fiber interior trim, heated seats, multi-media package, rear view camera, and keyless go. I had a 2005 E55 which I sold in 2008 and this is the first Benz I have had since selling that car. I must say that as good as the E55 was, this car is even better. It is exceedingly fast, comfortable, and just an all around blast to drive. For any of you who live in the Los Angeles area, I am going to take it this Sunday to Supercar Sunday on the Southeast corner of Topanga Canyon and Erwin St. in Woodland Hills in the Westfield Mall parking lot. There are usually 300 or so cars that show up the last Sunday of every month. It starts at seven in the morning and by ten most everyone is heading out. It is a lot of fun. Hope to make some new friends on the forum and participate in some local events.

This evening i found a guy who is able to encoding the control unit of the tail lights.

Mercedes isn't able to do it

This is how the new tail lights have to look like:




Next mod:
Today my new rear bumper arrived and i directly take it to my car varnisher
I hope i can fit it next week.

For some reason I don't like how they look lit up. I like how they look not lighted and I like how the video looked. Do you have the old video you can post again? It says it was removed.

Also who encoded it for you?

Dome the tails are amazing. It's a must have - totally changes the back of the car.
I found them on Ebay for 444EUR (rip-off) and it also said there that MB cannot encode them. I wonder why...

Can you PM me the price of the rear bumper with the diffuser?

Hey Dome, the new tails look great lit up! Reminds me of the newer style BMW which I really liked, although the BMWs still have a nicer pattern to them, but it's a move in the right direction.

I can't quite tell what is different with them after the encoding though? I noticed from the video it looked like you could see individual LEDs before, perhaps the rear fog light? Are these now switched off properly?

@ mr inkredibul
I delete it already from my PC, sorry man.
I found a guy in a german forum who can encode the control units

@ Matt
MB got the normal "Star-Diagnostic", but u need the "Developer-Software" the fix this problem
The guy who did it on my car also delete the seatbelt-message for the rear seats and the sound when u don't use ur seatbelt :P

He get this software from china with a Laptop, so it's hard to find someone who can encode MBs

@ obsidian05e55
I don't know how it works but he encode the control unit of the tail lights called "SAM".

@ nrgy
The fog lights are the diffrence
Before the encoding the fog lights were the whole on both sides on.
Not with full power but on.

When i turn on the fog light after the encoding only the one on the right turn on with full power.
And this is how they have to work

Basically , you could still use these taillights fine without re-encoding if you are not using rear fogs.
Am I right ?

@ Kaiba
That's not right
The fog lights are always on both sides on when u turn on the normal light.

That's the problem without encoding

Sick hood faresuae!! It will look good with your DTM bumper or add a front lip. Oh, you should paint your roof black now to flow with your aggressive car.

I received mine today. Installing it tomorrow.

Was it difficult installing the upper part of the 2 piece grille
to the hood?

No it wasn't difficult to install the upper part of the grill you need to drill to make holes for the screws.

This hood dropped the engine temp from 199F to 188F

Make tiny pilot holes in the dimples that mark the screw locations. Leave plenty of fiber for the screws to bite into.

Thanks for the tip.

Installed the hood this morning but didn't mess with the upper
grille yet because I'm wrapping the chrome in CF.
