2010 Intelligent Light Control Fix
I have made the Intelligent Light Control work with all facelift 2010 headlamp assemblies. Very easy to do, just bypass a few wires. Thanks to Mastermind for all his help, a lot of time went into this. Enjoy.

Thanks for info, do you mind sharing what is involved in this process, and what parts needed? Like do you need headlights with SAMs or without?

You will need 2010 front SAM module, 2010 headlights with all three modules for each, and 2010 headlight wiring harness. You do not have to program anything via DAS...the front SAM comes already programmed from the factory. I never understood all these posts saying you have to bring it to the dealer to have the SAM programmed. People do not know what they're doing....lol. This is a simple parts swap, thats it.

2007 Mercedes S320
@greekviking....just to clarify as i'm in progress of doing this upgrade for my S320 2007.
I have already ordered both 2010 facelift headlights but nothing else. So it's okay to order the front SAM module 6 control units+headlight harness from my MB dealer without any further programming? If it comes pre-programmed, it's just plug n play hopefully. Wasn't sure as others have suggesting buying the SAM (pre-coded) + harness elsewhere. Any help appreciated. Many Thanks.

To be honest, i bought this so called interface module of ebay and its was absolute rubbish!!!!
I ended up taking the headlight modules out (xalwa) and sending them to a motorsport shop to get them coded and they worked 100% when I got them back and fitted them.
Don't waste ur money, unless you can return the interface for a full refund.
