Logo Puddle light in US?
Over in the pictures thread there are a couple of 2016 Canadian GLE's that show the MB Logo puddle light. Are these on the US versions?

If not, is there a part number to order and retro-fit these? I find them very very cool...

yes they are. I don't like it at all. I think the image is way too big and loud

The intensity of the light beam is pretty mild.
My wife likes it, I don't mind it, but I found the puddle light on my old 2012 Ford Focus hatchback brighter, wider and more useful at night.

It's a bit tacky imho w/o much purpose but it seems like Audi is catching onto the trend too

Nice to have the puddle light, but the MB logo,etc. is a bit over-the-top. But hey, a MB is a bit over-the top. An ordinary light wouldwork just fine for me.

US version here...

I think them and the door sill lights are pretty cool. Nice touch!

My wife just took delivery of her GLE 350 yesterday. Last night she commented on the Batman light on the driveway. She was not impressed. She thought it was embarrassing and hoped her friends would not notice it. I told her all the new cars have it... ya I fibbed a bit.
