Please tell me if I am wrong:

1. They come standard on the E-550 even if you order Luxury and not Sport
2. The come on the E-350 if you get P-2
3. They come standard on the E-350 if you get Sport.

I am going to order a car, and I want them, not the two rounds on either side.

The two round fogs are gone for MY11+. There are different LEDs for sport, Luxury and E63. Luxury gets the straight LEDs, Sport gets the hockey sticks, and AMG gets a more agressive Straight LED.
You dont have to worry about round fogs unless you were to buy 2010 E-class without p2 package.

My 2011 E350 Bluetec has the dual round (DRL/Fog) lights. They have not be discontinued and are standard for the Luxury E350's.

That is correct.

Luxury with P1 package still have double fog lamps look.
Luxury with P2 package get straight LEDs instead.
All sport models (P1 or P2 doesn't matter) have "hockey stick" LEDs.

Oh I thought they were gone. I thought MB made LED standard on all ofr their cars. I guess it must be MY12 and not MY11. They are going to all LED lineup at some point right? I thought I read that somewhere?!?

Hi,
I start by saying that:

to mount your kit you must disconnect the fog lights.

This process automatically determines me the error "failure fog left and right. "

Proceeding with the connection of your kit, the plug of the fog light is disconnected.

The installation was done in two different ways:

1° MODE:

1° step :
The electrician has connected the "black wire" to the machine frame to create a ground circuit.

2° step:
The "red wire" has been linked to the ignition of my car so when I turn the key, the LEDs light up.

3° step:
The "blue / white wire" ,in the manual so called "A", has been linked to the positive pole of the fog light.

Because the controller is supplied with the kit allows different modes of operation:

1st: Only DRL
2nd: DRL + POSITION LIGHT
SPECIAL BRIGHTNESS 3 ° <300 CANDELA

I chose the second option, or DRL + Position light.

4° step:
To have this option, we have connected the wire called "D " (blue), which comes from the control unit supplied, with the thread called "F".

5° step:
We have connected the "orange wire" to the positive terminal of the tail lights

With the scheme that I listed above I get the following effect:

With the scheme that I listed above I get the following effect:

When I turn the key LEDs light up in DRL mode even if the system is turned offlights.

When I turn on the lights to position the LED DRL mode decreases the brightnessand turn lights.

When I turn on the fog lights, LEDs do not increase the brightness but remain in position lamps

2° MODE:

We connected the wires is different from the first only for the 4° and 5°step:

We have connected the blue wire / with the positive pole of the tail lights
while the orange wire to the positive pole of fog light.

This last procedure, however, does not allow the LEDs to function.

After having described how to connect the kit made by my electrician, can you tell me if there is any link wrong?

And if there were, can you tell me how to fix the wire connection?

MY ELECTRIC HAS DOUBTS:

Doubts about the connection of two WIRES:

1 wire:

THE LINE BLUE / WHITE CALLED "A" IN THE MANUAL
(My electrician has connected this wire to the positive pole of the fog)

The manual says that you must connect it to the light position, but in doing so, theLED flashes quickly.

2nd wire:

THE ORANGE LINE CALLED "B " IN THE MANUAL
(My electrician has connected this wire to the positive pole of lights)

The manual says that you must connect it to the "signal light" so as to convert light toposition light drl When signal light is on.

My electrician does not interpret what the user means by the term "signal light".

Please help me!

Can a 2010 sports model with the round fogs convert to the hockey stick fog?
