The same thing applies when traveling behind another car, the system will deactivate only the LEDs that cover the car in front of you. Also when you encounter traffic signs, it will reduce the intensity of the corresponding LEDs to reduce glare.
I assume these features are unlocked through the OBD.
Awesome. Thank you. I ordered the Multibeam Plus upgrade from Vlad this morning. Should be here within a couple weeks.

I added them because I didn’t like that they don’t come on at night when the car is running and one of the doors is opened. I never noticed them coming on when the car 360 cameras are on but I will have to watch and observe They only also function with the ignition off other than that whether it’s unlocking the car or turning the engine off before you exit. To each their own is right I suppose. Still hunting for chrome headlight and taillight bezels as my next mod. I have had that on every Mercedes I’ve ever owned. No luck yet

I thought Canadian cars had this feature activated. I have only driven mine once in the dark outside a city so far so I can't say for sure but it was adjusting lights constantly as I approached from behind other cars and when vehicles were oncoming. How could I confirm if I have it activated?

We have the auto high beam, it will turn on the high beam when there are no cars approaching and turn off when you encounter traffic. I've never seen it stay on high beam and blackout the oncoming traffic as the Euro cars do. I also do not have cornering lights and I understand this is added with this mod also.

Very nice...I put the Mud Flaps on my 2020 and it helped keep the sides cleaner. The taper of the body let’s the tire throw anything wet or sand/gravel on the body sides.

I swapped out the 4 door panel courtesy lamps with a set of logo lights as well.....cost about $20 (sorry for poor pic but they look pretty crisp). I too have the projectors under the side mirrors but as explained earlier they only come on in certain circumstances

I am actually thinking about removing the exit light logo projectors and returning them, I may had the Brabus style puddle lamps like I had on my W164 body ML. Not really sure which way im leaning

Are you having any issues with your aftermarket ones ? I have found the the OEM works perfectly while the motor is off. When the car is running they will light up faintlyand flash on and off on any door until I turn the motor back off. MB Parts has the same item with 2 different part numbers so I may to look into that or go the aftermarket route if yours dont flash like mine are right now

Red Calipers look great, Where did you get them done ? I bought a GLE 450 2021 recently and I would like to get it done.

I got some for my GLE that has the AMG trim with running boards. I posted the link in the past. I’ll try looking for it once I get home from work if you haven’t seen it. The description was incorrect on the Amazon ad but I took a gamble and it paid off.

do you have a picture zoomed out as well so I can see the overall look?

I am switching from a 350d with Amg package to a 350 de without the amg package. As I like it more without. Might be the only one

I am getting new floor mats. Probably something like this

So I checked the amazon link where I bought it and it's no longer working. It was sold by SPEEDLONG, which was purchased by another member above. Ron also posted some sold by a different vendor. All these mudflaps come from the same factory in China I'm sure. At least that link that Ron posted has the correct description (GLE with AMG line and running boards). Mine said it was for non running boards and I took a gamble and it happened to pay off.
