Ambient Light Retrofit
So i own a 2017 E-Class which came without ambient light from the factory, my question : i know that u atleast need the ambient light ECU which is located under glovebox, but since the "tubes" are already there im guessing only the LEDs need to be put in, but i might be wrong ? did anyone ever tried retrofitting the standard ambient light onto their e-class and can help a little bit ?

yeah i figured the leds and the ecu and maybe the wiring harness would be needed, i already found the wiring harness for ambient lighting which costs about 150€ from mercedes, the ecu can be bought for about 60€ used or 140€ new, but the only thing i couldnt find even after hours of digging in the parts catalogue were the leds, im wondering if they are integrated in the wiring harness, or do you have any parts number ? thank you
