Or, we can choose to use companies that many of us on this forum trust and have used like @rjautomotive instead of trolling these threads.
Coincidentally, all posts by @rjautomotive somehow have been wiped off the forum a few days ago…

Agreed. Maybe the admins will take a closer look. I am not quite sure what the reference or comparison is supposed to be. If you are a legitmate entrepneur with a service to sell, then sell what you've got. Don't make endless posts trying to be "better" than someone else. I can't even figure out the real "cost" when I go to the website. just vague references to 'don't need this', but 'I give you this." Oh, and if you want to know what it costs, or what we can actually do, email me!

Mate - if you want people to buy your service stop attacking others!! Seriously, all you're doing is making yourself look silly. Blocking @BenzNinja .....

I wasn't going to post anything because I was a bit irked this morning so it wasn't going to come out nice but now I am quite frankly really annoyed by @BenzNinja and their childish spamming of the forum with their goofy misspelled graphics and constant attacks of others.
@Wolfman can you please bring some order here I don't know what is going on but we don't collectively have to endure this adolescent behavior.
I will not be buying the service offered by @BenzNinja because their attitude is off-putting and unprofessional. @rjautomotive did my coding and I was happy with them. They were professional.

As someone interested in doing this I am put off by @BenzNinja 's behavior here. Let's get back to normal gents. @rjautomotive definitely comes across as a pro.

This is so cool. Friggin DOT for not getting with the program and making things safer for US drivers.

NHTSA approved adaptive high beams last year as part of the infrastructure bill. I went into my dealership last week for service and asked if they could enable it. When the service was finished, they assured me they are already working as they are supposed to. They are not. They only switch between high and low.

Would love to have it enabled at a dealership so I don’t risk voiding my warranty.

I don't think the ruling is effective yet.
I don't know if there will be a hardware difference, although I wouldn't think so. It could be headlights, cameras or other sensors.

I asked my Service Manager if my three codings would affect my warranty and he said they wouldn't.

"Adaptive driving beams" were approved for installation in new cars effective 2/15/22 (https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.go...1-2022-web.pdf). Chances are manufacturers are not going to retroactively certify them for existing vehicles even if the hardware is present. You will not void your warranty by doing a third party enablement.

I can’t imagine a reason dealerships wouldn’t activate it if asked by a customer. One would think MB would want its customers to enjoy its state-of-the art, differentiating technology.

They ought to do it for free since American consumers were sold a $900 option that did not operate as advertised. At the very least, they should be willing to perform the coding for a charge.

The system for each vehicle has to be tested and certified that it meets standards by the manufacturer (see the requirements in the link I provided). Those standards for the US are new as of 11 months ago and can be implemented on new vehicles, but certifying them for existing vehicles is a little harder. I suppose if the system in the 2024 GLE, for instance, was tested and certified and it is identical to that already in use since 2020, the manufacturer could allow the dealers to retrofit the software.
