this is not an ad for the guy, he claim that this feature is not in Canada and US cars. My care is imported from canada e300 2017 4matic. I gave him the vin # and asked if I already have it or not he said I can install it for you for this $$$.
I wanted to know if I already have this feature or not!

Bottom line is that the LED headlights are pretty brain dead in North America because of a stupid US law. You need the mod if you want them to work as designed.

You can do the mod to make the multibeams work in the US like they do in other countries. As for the rear lights, you cannot modify this.

Although I appreciate a free form forum as much as anyone. A few sticky threads, like one for the intelligent in some places LED headlights would be good especially for newcomers and light users.

some people here in saudi just buy front and rear lights locally once their imported us cars arrive and replace them.
I'll search for cheaper one 500$ is a little too much.

I don't think it is this simple. The US cars do not have any lights in the units where the turn signals are in ROW. The pins are different. The programming is different. Someone tried doing this to their US W213 and it was a nightmare.

If someone did a US car and had all the instructions for wiring + PNs I'd switch mine over.

yes it is not just remove US and install gulf/saudi ones, I don't remember but it is including programming, wiring. Anything in changing the original car structure is a big NO NO for me. I trust Mercedes engineers and technicians lol

That’s not so, my 2017 with P3 has the same multi beam features I have seen discussed here that the upgraded Module does.

Not possible, sorry. The features we're talking about are essentially high-beams on all the time. Single LED cells are blanked out to avoid blinding oncoming cars or cars you're approaching, making a "dim tunnel" just as wide as it needs to be to avoid the other car. Everything else in the beam is high and bright. This feature is currently illegal in North America, where cars need low and high beams and nothing in between.
