I use to think the same but the more I look at the new ones the better they get. I contacted my MB dealer and they said they do fit and no coding was needed.

Agree it hasnt changed much on the 63. I was originally thinking he was putting the near lights on the 43. I think the new lights modernize it bit...still soften it...which is personal preferance. The new 43 rears look sooo much better because the diffuser is so much more aggressive. Front of the new 43s still look wonky.
