automated coding with cheap $5 plugs will never achieve what real manual coding does as first of all profound coding is depending of the HW and SW versions
coding lines are not the same even on the same car
first of all latest headlights contain a separate PXL unit from the Headlight itself
these codings are very sensitive and trigger errors depending on FW and HW versions, so adjusted manually and tested
What you get with automated obd plugs is BASIC ILS+ just ILS+ ON, same as amateurs do themselves.
We adjust and finetune far more things like ADAS and/or Camera driven Highway lights, automated Foglights functions and several more Camera & ADAS and warning options and interactions
All this only works if all other elements are adjusted and personalized correctly
most of the time your adas is not even authorized and on
also, where BenzNinja beats them all is that all elements are updated if needed, checked, and non Headlights elements improved by coding as they are part of the process
The best fully optimized BenzNinja version takes up to 1 hour
All this is the result of many month's of development that could be achieved with the help of our thousands members
we could just code basic ils+ and never care of making things better
but that is not how BenzNinja works
Better is still not good enough, we are NO LIMIT
so if you want the real thing, get BenzNinja ADVANCED ILS+
FOR ONLY $375 !
and get your car filled up with tons of more mods
PS: I added this explanation for those who are really interested in what better is, after post #270 because it doesn't worth talking to ignorance and feeding this thread and Keith66 keeps talking to himself with diffamation posts but has no knowledge on the subject.
always fun to watch
and guys, i'm kinda 100.000 miles away from being desperate with 30-35 cars coded + 12-14 new members / week.
hard work pays off
Keith66: "I think I speak for most members" ??? no you speak for yourself 100% of our users recommend our work over years now, 4-5 non-users on 500.000 have 0 effect
Now TonyF61has been trolling my posts since a very, very long time. so no comment
And...... of course, you will never ever see a coder revealing his tricks and lines. another stupid Idea due to ignorance,
but my thousands of user know the extreme care and quality of my work. just read.
It's unfortunate that MBWorld appears to have ZERO standards that sponsors are required to adhere to. Clearly, as seen in this thread, sponsors are free to be misleading, untruthful, disrespectful and downright deceitful to the members of this forum and continue to do so unchecked.
After witnessing this disgusting display of obviously deceitful and unethical business practices by a sponsor here, I am now forced to question the reputation and ethics of all the sponsors of this website with an equal amount of suspicion, and going forward, will be leary of supporting any of them.
As noted previously in the thread, I'm quite happy with the results using the Vlad module. It has worked flawlessly since I used it to program my lights and they have continued to operate in intelligent mode even after repeated visits to the dealer for my annual services. No Flowers for Algernon syndrome . . .
That said, regardless of which vendor was used to do the recoding I don't recall reading a single bad result after the update was done regardless of the vendor involved.
Some vendors seem to think that their method or service is superior or more cost effective, but at the end of the day (pun intended) regardless of the vendor/method the result speak for themselves.

Rather than discussing the merits and demerits of third-party enabling systems. We should be to decrying the fact that MBUSA has not turned on the full functionality of the lighting system they sold for $850. The NHTSA change in regulation was as the result of a Toyota petition. Maybe that car manufacturer has a higher concern for its customers’ safety.
@BenzNinja So what exactly are the "4 more features" that you enable on ILS+ that nobody else does? I took a look at your website, but there is no mention of the 4 additional features.

1.) Super Blindmode: Can be used after the obnoxious tailgater passes you.
2.) Music Partymode: Can only be used while your car is parked and lights will strobe and flash to the beat of music.
3.) Sun Tanmode: Turn on your lights and sit in front of them with your favorite chair and get a tan.
4.) Drive In Theatremode: Plug in a USB stick inside your car with your favorite movies and it will project out the left headlight. Garage doors make an awesome screen. Popcorn not included.

Looking for STEALTH mode which activates cloak of invisiblity while speeding by cops.
You're in luck! We have a sponsor in this thread that has stated he can do "EVERYTHING YOU WOULD DREAM OF", so there you go... STEALTH mode can be had!

EVERYTHING YOU WOULD DREAM OF + maintenance, diagnostics, firmware upgrades and more for less money
Alternatively, you could install a flux capacitor and hit 88mph. ;p
BTW this is not a complete coding you got it's just BASIC ILS+

So we have BenzNinja, a sponsor of this forum, stating the following different versions of ILS+ exist and only he is the provider of the superior one:
ILS+
Basic ILS+
Real ILS+
Advanced ILS+
Standard ILS+
As stated by BenzNinja repeatedly that he has advanced knowledge of the MB environment and the advanced tools to work within this environment, then it should should be an easy task to take a simple screenshot from within the MB environment showing the individual and isolated parameters of the different ILS+ versions defined above by Mercedes-Benz.
Take your time BenzNinja, we'll all hang here and wait for you to prove me wrong. I'm sure it will very satisfying for you to correct me, as you obviously have the financial incentive to do so.
There is literally no difference between what these guys do and what one of the modules does, except Benzninja will do it cheaper which is a plus. They should stick to that.
I am going to do this for my wagon and after reading posts from BenzNinja I will spend my money literally anywhere that is not associated with him/her.

Same here, I'm going with Vlad's module.
Even if BenzNinja was doing this for $10, I'd rather pay $1000 to an honest and respectful man.
So I was just reviewing this thread, and in a brilliant example of deception and dishonesty, instead of replying to any of our recent posts asking BenzNinja to back-up his extraordinary claims with anything substantial, he edited a post of his from 5 days ago adding a P.S. response at the bottom to a post made 4 days into the future. Maybe you hoped you'd catch a fresh phish?

Peter, when I posted my first comment in this thread 2 days ago, you, in a continuation of your poor judgment calls, instead of replying in the public thread like a decent honest person with nothing to hide, you DM'd me within minutes with sand in your vag, desperately trying to make a point that wasn't even a point.
You have no secret sauce.
Step off already.
You are purposely trying to mislead people and that's always wrong, regardless of the circumstances.
I think I speak for most members of this forum when I say this:
Dude… do you think we obtained the money to buy expensive cars by being idiots?
I had my lights coded by @rjautomotive and I am very pleased with the results and the process. Just couldn't get in bed with a vendor who writes hundreds of post putting down members and others who provide a perfectly legit service to us. There is something wrong when your business model revolves around those practices, and I prefer to stay away from that type of vendor.
I never saw his post, but then again I blocked him a long time ago. It is obvious what will happen when a customer has a problem by his posts.
There's an old yet wise saying - "Where there's smoke there's fire". If he cannot treat others with respect here he's definitely not going to do it with a customer. Of course, if all you want is cheap then go ahead and throw the dice. It's only your money.
I wanted to clarify my question because I’m rereading some of the comments I realize wasn’t sure if maybe I wasn’t being clear.
my current multi beam led headlight lenses are in bad shape. Lots of pits and marring that are not polishing out.
so I want to REPLACE headlights. Since I’m doing this I might as well get the EU version with the clear corners.
so the first question and the answer I’m seeing is if I replace the headlights with US domestic multi beam or EU version multi beam - I need to code them to make them function. It’s NOT plug and play.
SECOND QUESTION: can I just purchase a module to code (activate) brand new headlight units - US domestic or EU multi beam? Or does this need to be done at a shop. Thanks!
UPDATE: I didn't hear back here, but made some calls. So I'm understanding that any new headlights, EU or domestic, need to be programmed to function. Not too many independent shops (in my area) have access to the Mercedes servers to do this programming so a trip to the dealer is likely required. The dealer may not agree to activate a non domestic part....need to figure that one out.
The full function module needs the initial programming to activate the headlights first.

Yes of course
we code them
and, keep in mind that the dealer can only code what they have in SA from MB servers, automated so the coding you will get is the same as what your original lights
if the version of your new headlights is wrong it might not work
also the sidemarkers on will trigger faults
I doubt they know how to set them off
good luck, if you want to get it coded correctly we can do that perfectly + ILS+
just in case...
