I was able to put custom build order on dealership at Northern California dealership. Their system had 21 model's options but no pricing release yet. They have to manually work out the price with you. Hope it helps.

I hate that I missed out on that option on my 2020. I believe in terms of hardware the front camera is there (Same one used for augmented reality navigation) but I'm guessing the footage is saved to a SD card and we don't have the card slot.

In any case I ended up installing a Backvue DR900S which is a 4K front camera and 1080 rear (compared to 720 front / no rear camera) which nets the higher video quality required for reading license plates. It's just annoying I have to rip apart my interior to install equipment that should be standard on all cars in this day and age.

The dashcam app saves the recordings a USB drive.
Vladimir, the same guy who offers the LED multi-beam headlight unlock, can now unlock dashcam too, if you want to try it.

What is the link for the multi-beam headlights like they have in Europe?

I'd be lying if I said I knew what in all would be needed.. just a new option for 2021, I assume the wiring....software update needed as well and SD card reading.. I don't think its that easy or cost effective after the fact ..

As long as the car is built with AR nav, all the hardware is there, just up to software activation at that point.
Also, it writes to a USB drive connected to one of the USB ports.

yup, that’s all it needs, so I don’t understand why the dealerships wouldn’t just do it, for customers cars that have the necessary hardware, they just need the software uploaded, but you see that guy Vladimir is charging 250, this is 50 bucks more than the dealers are asking, and folks will probably pay it, Mercedes is losing....

I don't know if dealers have the ability to do it.
Perhaps when the new Mercedes me Store app launches in the US, it will be purchasable.

For those who want to check 21' options, although you may get euro options not available in the US, you can use the german configurator with google and translate if from german to english
