As it says. Needs to move pins and then programming depending on wich tail lights you have originaly.

All you need is the DRL package. It includes modules for this to work without programing. If you want OEM you must program and yes it can be done of course.

ok..Never haerd of that option so that I dont know...Since when you program it for that it is for LED. And that means you will get error messages for broken light and I also dont think it will send enought power to them.

Thank you anyway, I have already seen mercedes c class year about 2008, 2009 (what is actually the same like glk I think) which was leaving tunnel and it's lights turned from low beams to fogs, but I am not sure if the driver switched it manually or if it was automatical, becouse you can turn the switch to position only for fogs, but I'd like to have it automatic...fe. when I drive into the tunnel fogs switch to low beams, when I left tunnel low beams switch to fogs again...with switch in position A...this normally works if you turn off drl in instrument cluster, but here in Norway, you have to use lights during all day (drl or low beams) and you can use fogs for drl...I have to ask mercedes dealer...

Almost impossble to say when the prices on the parts is up to the used markets prices. And for you the US market. I got it cheap here but dont know the avarage prices in US. I can ship alot to you but the biggest things cost so much to ship like dashboard and bumpers.

Took a phoneshoot of the now finnished interior. All facelift door panels in place. Added a few aluminium parts ad well to make it a bit more excusive looking wich I think looks OEM and not tacky..Like the buttons for the seats and speaker frames... AMG color cluster is not in here though. On the way back to me after service done on it. I will add sport pedals as well soon.

All new bumpers and headlights are also in place. Need to take som good pic of it though.

That is easy but different depending on what version you had before. Just take out the old one and put 12v to pins one by one and do the same on the new and you see the difference and where to move pins. And when programming just try different settings on bulb or led options till it works.

2010 GLK 350
First off I want to say great job! That is amazing! I have the 2010 GLK with nav & Harmon Cardon sound system. I would love to upgrade my dash to what you did along with the command. Will I still retain the Nav function and the sound System if I swap out the head unit? Thanks a million!

Great build! Awesome dedication and patience to do it right.

I just picked up a 2012 GLK. It has the MB Tex seats. I was wondering if you knew what seats from other models will fit the mounts and how much if any wiring would need to be changed.

Hey Chris,

Very impressive work. I have an identical 2010 GLK and am drooling by looking at your pictures and prices you're paying!!!

Might be a lot to ask, specially coming from a complete stranger, but I'd be SO much grateful if you could look up the price on a facelifted center console with the knob. I can't find anything under 300$, and they're not even the right color... Let me know if it could be a realistic solution.

Thanks so much for sharing your "projekt" with us, it's absolutely mind blowing
