Ambient Lighting

Can anyone confirm what lighting this package includes? My GLK has it but I have no clue what's standard and what isn't.

Lighting Package (USA)

*Bi-Xenon Headlamps with (ACI) Active Curve Illumination
*Headlamp Washing System
*LED Taillamps
*Corner-Illumination Lamps (In addition to the ACI above)

Ambient Lighting Package not listed in USA. There is Premium Interior Lighting offered as part of the Leather Option.... I think that includes valet lights in the doors that illuminate the sill and ground after you open it, and lights under each side of the dash in the foot wells... etc.

In Canada we don't get ambient lighting with the leather option. But we get the passenger side mirror to tilt down when reverse parking.

I am in Canada and "Interior ambient light package" is listed in my list of options but there is no charge for it so I think you could be right that it is part of the leather option. There is red lights on the doors where others have indicated they have reflectors (and not lights). How about the dim yellow lights in the door handles?

Yes this only includes the light in the door handles and the front footwells.

For Canadians - Ambient Lighting...

is part of the Leather Option PKG.

I was curious in my earlier post to see if this is pre-wired so I could add it or at least enhance it when I get the car.
I can't presume that MB would not have the pre-wires in the doors?
If you got some pixs to share, please do so...

It also comes with Leather upholstery in the U.S., except I think they list it as "Premium Interior Lighting" in the Dealer Ordering Guide.
