Is this available for pre-facelift W222s? I looked at my headlights today and they say LED Intelligent Light System and just last night when I was driving home someone was walking on the side of the road and NVA tagged them and the headlights like flashed a rectangle of light on them several times lol it was pretty neat.
If this is available on 14-17 what are some of the advantages of it over stock?
Side note - can a US S63 be programmed to have the sign recognition? I really want that! Not sure if it matters but VIN is: WDDUG7JB9EA026867
Should have every available option you could configure on a 14.
Thanks for any help

Yes, its available for pre-refresh W222s and the sign recognition can be activated.

What is Sign Recognition? Can it be activated on a 2014 W222? In addition to the IL, what would the charge be for the extras? Is there a list anywhere of Options / Features that can be activated / Added with pricing?

I believe it can. it reads the speed limit signs and displays them on the instrument cluster.
After a little drama (my receptionist let UPS pick up the box instead of it just sitting there for me to take out to Jim Ma) the laptop is in the hands of the next user!

"Road sign assist shows speeds limits
That’s it, I sometimes can sometimes not
You can get amg cluster and logos
Maybe carplay
MB had too many software to really see in advance"

Hi.
I have some previous experience with car's coding on BMW 7 series and Audi A8. I'm not sure the way it works on Mercedes, but I doubt it is any different. I hope you guys understand if you ever go to the dealer for any software update - all your coding will be wiped out and you have to do it again after the visit to the dealer. There is no way to tell your dealer - update the software but don't touch the stuff that I modified before.

I tried my new ILS lights last night in a variety of conditions from the DC beltway to rural country 2 lane roads. I must say that I am impressed. Even with the roads wet from rain, the lights we able to illuminate everything very well. For those of you considering this mod I would definitely recommend it.

ILS+ is a must; I just had my car coded last night. I want to emphasize how much brighter and wider the beam of light is. The beam now easily lights up 30 feet to the direct left and right of the vehicle. I always wondered why Mercedes didn't offer fog lights for the S-Class- now I know why. These lights are now wider and brighter than any (U.S spec) vehicle offered with fog lights today. It's also really interesting to watch the beam dip around vehicles while still lighting up the trees to the left and right. Some added bonuses were my night vision now functions better. It picked up every single person I drove past and put a box around them. Likewise, my Distronic+ seemed to pick up more lines than prior. I'm extremely happy with this upgrade. I can't wait to try these out in the mountains. Currently having the C63 coded and then I'll be shipping it to Colorado! Thank you BenzNinja!

Hi Vince
I'm from Dallas. I messaged a month earlier and didn't get any response if you added to the list.
Could you please reply if you added me to the list for upgrading my car.
Thanks in advance

I see adaptive highbeam assist, I dont think we have the ILS + in the US. I gotta check in the vehicle inside the light menu. Any luck on activating all the options for the new digital light for the 223 to ROW options? Im looking to retrofit them to my car but only once you guys crazy all the functionalities
possible, but too expensive for coders for now, it would raise the coding price to a not reasonable price
in simple language, it's a new locking system
working on it
soon, probably by the end of this year
