Okay... I suppose I pay $680 to you, and shipping costs to whoever has the tech before me. I also pay Peter for his kind services. After this, I am refunded $620 making my net payment $60 + Prior User Shipping + Peter's Coding. Perhaps I am mistaken?
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.
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!
Okay I am caught up on PMs.
Jim Ma has it then off to the next two. Florida and then Colorado.
680.00 and 620.00 back.
Sorry about 2x on shipping.. And thanks for bringing it up and not hammering me!

Message to me from BenzNinja regarding my 2015 S550:
250 ILS+
200 Road Sign
"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.
Hello all
i am Yousef from Saudi Arabia , I brought an imported 2016 s550 while I am so excited to upgrade it and improve the software or do any updates
yet still not well knowledgeable about upgrading the headlights to 2020 plus if I can change the cluster look and AMG graphics - I have 8 colors lights and was looking for the more colors
need the experience of you members for referrals to threads or topics regarding retrofitting the 2020 headlights on my current grill and front bumper
sorry for the long message
plus if you guys have whatsapp group or can help me via WhatsApp
my WhatsApp: +966581566156
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.

I definitely want in. That transmission sport+++ mode looks interesting. Can it be done on a 2011 S63 also would be interested in becoming Vip member. I’m in Maryland
Happy to see that you are all satisfied with having your car upgraded !
Please post here and message compaddict for reservation
Thank you all for your kind comments !
Hey BenzNinja.. So two questions, is this available for 2022 W223, and what happens after a dealer makes update and wipes out the coding? Will you recode at no cost or does ILS+ not something that is typically affected by updates

Thanks in advance
you can do that with the Mercedes Me Connect app yourself
right now coding those 223 requires certificates and I am working on the solution
and
of course
like every coding I do and everything I do has unlimited free warranty

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

there is no W223 solution yet as it requires a echanced certificate to bypass new locking
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
