Yes it has it built in.

Sam way as original.
This set has a litte programed box on it that makes it all work like it should.

Oh..The cost....
Headlights on Ebay both for about 1100 Euro
ECU units are used so that means they are also already programed 350 Euro all 6.
Cable is about 600 Euro.

Be careful with them resistors. It gets really hot and could melt what's around it. I had the same resistors mounted on a seperate metal bracket.that I mouned above the led drl. And it kind of melted the housing of the drl. So I just ran a wire connected from inside of the car (foot rest light) to both the drl. Works 100% w/out any resistors.

Why not fix it (change the circuit design) instead of leaving it like that even if placed in a safe spot?

First claim about all OEM function and now DRL is connected with resistors as foglights and also claim 'no extra interfaces - all OEM coding!!) now show a little black box.

The DRL must be re-routed into SAM connector, but the old SAM need to replaced or hardware/software modded.

Just to reiterate - our kit DOES NOT REQUIRE the use of those resistor packs. Our kit is plug and play and utilizes coding for 100% OEM functionality without any errors or any other issues - THIS INCLUDES BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO THE XENON HID, LED DRLs in the bumper, ILS / ADAPTIVE / ETC
As noted previously - those resistor packs get VERY HOT and can melt plastics and/or damage paint - we do not recommend the use of these resistor packs.

This kit dont have ANY errors or issues eithger and have 100% OEM functionality and the cost is hugely different so if you can live with some resistoers wich is NO problem if you install them corectly the chose is eazy.But if you want to go the FULL OEM whay your kit is awesome as well...

I guess people know its on high demand. That they can set any price they want? So that harness is less than $200.00? What's the total for the headlight conversion?

dctms,

I have to chime in and say your price is too high. Might as well buy a 2010 mb550 instead and get a car with lower miles.

If you lower your price you'll be surprized at how many people will jump on your bandwagon....
