Lightbulb Electronic damping bypass / canceler

Hi there,
my car has the dynamic handling package and i had a new aftermarked sports coilover suspension installed. Now my car is stucked in Sport Mode.
It seemed that the problemfix is a cancellation kit for electronic damping system like from KW 68510305 or Eibach AM65-25-019-01-22. It look like some cheap resistors for very high price.
Had anybody another cheaper fix / mod for my problem?
Thanks for your answers

Did you get this problem solved? I have a 2017 E550 Cabriolet with dynamic handling package and want to lower the suspension.

It sounds like you ma=y already know this, but it may be that the ECU is expecting to see a resistance from the shocks, if a low resistance can be found between 2 pins from the shocks, it may be possible to fool the ECU with a resistor. I have done this on my BMW track car for the passenger detector to enable the airbags.

I have a whole post about stuck in sport mode if you guys search it is on here. I ended up having to change a sensor at one of my shocks but others had different remedies.
