Mercedes E200 W212 Facelift
W212 How to install ambient lightning?
Hello, I searched the whole internet on how to install the original W212 ambient light in the doors and in the dash and found nothing..
So as far as I know, I can just buy door panels with ambient lighting, connect it to each doors module with original plugs and it will light up. It will need some coding to get the 3 colors changing from the dash, because I have the facelifted version. But my question is for the trim in the dashboard. If I buy it with ambient light, where I need to connect it? Where the cars equipped with it connect it?
The car is: W212 2015, E200 Bluetec without the ambient light option.
PS: I don’t want any Chinese or aftermarket led strips and etc. I need to add the original option to the car.
Thank you very much the time you spent reading this!
Any knowledge will be some help for me.
Thanks again!
