Who has successfully converted to Euro taillights?

Has anyone done the Euro spec wagon tail light conversion? I have the lights, but info is scarce on the parts and coding needed to make the change? Anyone want to buy a set that fits the 14-16 E wagon?

I have been contemplating this upgrade as well but I cannot find someone with access to Xentry or similar systems to code if need be.
I would like to have the EU/ROW tail lights because the one sided rear fog light annoys me but if that is the only thing that changes I may be able to live with it.
Any details or photos of the parts you have? Would I need to change the headlight switch like I've had to on Audi or BMW?

I don’t know about the switch, but I do know that the plug that goes into the lights and what is on the housing are different between specs. I can’t seem to attach pics from my phone at the moment. I do have pics up in the marketplace where they are listed.

I would have to inquire with my friend's shop on how to get this going without the EU switch and connections.
Would someone like KufaTec and the like have a PNP harness?

Is the difference "just" the orange turn indicator?

both tail lights should have the rear fog light in addition to the amber rear indicator. i am not sure about MB but on other german marques the EU/ROW tail lights are adaptive and or sequential indicators. big plus over the domestic counterparts. if that is the case with the w/s212 tail lights then i am in and will purchase them.
