for this retrofit to work you need
1. cable kit that costs 600$
2. SAM that costs at least 500$
i have some ideas how to make it work flawlessly with just
some adjustable cables and maybe... maybe a new SAM
if this works, then maybe it will save me 700+$

And you will make "inteligent light" work with some cable mods? Curvelight? Dimfunction? Nightvision? No errors? LED DRLs and on and on just to mention a few things they do?

the thing for the headlamps worked and it costed me like 400 euros in parts that included a brand new SAM from the 2010 w221 model and the wires from the same model.... thats it guys, no need for the retrofit kit or buying some stuff that is overpriced and needless
i will post some picts soon

Well then you MUST list what parts you bought because this I NEVER heard of. Sound like magic to me. Only the SAM cost more and it needs programming as well.

2. brand new SAM from w221 2010 model that was coded from an actual w221 from 2010 that costs 300 euros
3. actual wire kit from 2010 model that costs 100 euros MAX
the whole work was done in a mercedes benz workshop
if needed i can get you the codes of the parts that i used...
i'll post some picts soon with the work done and some more details

But programing it all also cost alot for normal guys. Not something you get for free and the problem for all is that the sam needs to be programmed in a 2010 or later car. Not many have acces to that and that is what makes the module great and often you get error messages whan doing your method. Partsnumbers is always intresting.
