W212 E63 is still my dream car! The new E-Class is nice, but the W212 is (in my humble opinion) by far the best looking E-Class ever made! I did drive a 2014 E63 years ago and that experience only cemented my love for that car! 👍🏼
They are great cars, I actually had someone offer a very generous price the other day... I declined, just love it too much. Mercedes like the front end so much they put it on the w213
Same Opinion, drove one and got in Love. Such a well balanced and fast sedan, sold my M4 a year ago and planing to get one, but most of them are rocked down or hella expensive. Lets see
Thank you so much for taking some time out and putting together one of the best instructional videos on how to install these new ambient lighting kits for the w212!!!! You’re a life and time saver lol 🙏🏽🙏🏽
A much needed video for those with the W212 and C218. I followed the PDF guide which was good enough, and did the 12 colour ambient lighting + 4 matching footwells. It looks amazing. The stock 3 colours were so terrible.
@@ExoticCarDIY The tweeters do look good. But definitely get the matching footwells as well, it adds a ton more brightness as the light reflects off the floor mats. MUCH brighter than just having the wood trim lighting done.
@@ExoticCarDIY hi Exotic, is it possible the new kit needs uploading to the vehicle. As I had the kit working, all was working fine, but now the new lighting kit has stopped working. Would you have any advice on what could be at fault. Many thanks.
@@Alpinatom obviously hard to diagnose from here. When I first installed mine, one of the LEDs was dead. I took the door panel back off and found that one of the pins inside the plug had been pulled out. Once I pushed it back in place everything works fine. I would start on the main module, in the front, non steering wheel side door. Double check that everything's plugged in correctly. Next step would be manufactured
Just got mine in and Holy crap you are a life saver you have saved me in being rammy with my car and breaking things they turned out awesome thanks man
PSA: For those wondering if their kit only has 12-colours. Open the main module (the one with the largest set of pins). When you carefully removed the box cover you will see a switch of "ON", "KE" and "1"&"2". Move the switch of "1" to the "ON". Now you have all of the 64-colours to choose from. (Funny though I moved the "2" to the "KE" and it also worked.
I did the same thing with my E-Class . It was a very laborious install but I wanted to swap out my burlwood trim and install some Blackwood trim that I scored from a wrecked E550. My only dislike is considering that my interior is all black like yours I would like a lil more light bleeding that you would if the interior was Black/taupe . Good job in the install and you’ll love it
Agreed, my friend that I got this from had the white interior. So the lights absolutely just lit it up, it looked amazing. Off the black they're a little dimmer, but it helps at this kit allows to turn it up pretty bright
Awesome, just love this video - the music, camera angles, editing etc. is on-point! This product also looks like is great quality in terms of colour depth and brightness. How long do you think it would take a novice to install?
I would estimate most of the work is going to take two to three hours. A lot of the work is repetitive, so once you figure out how to do one door, the other three go real quick. However there are just a few places, such as fishing the wires through the door, or perhaps a vent getting stuck like mine that tends to add a significant amount of time... Maybe an additional 30-90 minutes, pushing the total time to 4 or even 5 hours maybe. For me, the time didn't matter since I was more concerned about being gentle and not breaking anything.
Wow! I've been searching high and low how to make my 2016 E400 ambient light brighter and with more than just 3 colors 😀! Found your channel and finally I have found the answer. So I assume this kit will fit on my 2016 E400 preface-lift with only 3 ambient colors? Again, thank you so much for sharing this video 👍!
@@ExoticCarDIY I noticed you have led illuminating tweeters. So I guess the kit will also affect your tweeter led as well. I got the same led tweeters for my E400. Haven’t installed them yet because I need to figure out how to connect them. Make a harness for the tweeters perhaps. DMP Car design has amazing products I’ve bought for my E400. Any suggestions reference the tweeters is greatly appreciated. This way when I have door panels removed, I can install everything same time. Going to order that ambient led kit for my car. Thanks again for the video.
@@ExoticCarDIY thanks for your quick reply. I went to DMP website and didn't find that extended it for the B&O led tweeters. However, I did find 12 colors B&O 3D tweeters they sell. I sent them a message inquiring about that extended kit. Let's see what they reply. If by chance you come across that kit greatly appreciate the link. Thanks for all your help. 👍
@@ExoticCarDIY Got my ambient kit today from DMP. However notice that the module that has most pins saids Left Front NOT Right Front like yours. Also additional wiring came which were not seen in your video. My E400 2016 is a W212. I will contact DMP make sure they sent me correct kit. Also they never replied about the add-on LED tweeter kit you mention to me.
Finishing installing my ambient light kit. It wasn't hard to do just a little labor time consuming. I tested everything before putting door panel back. Everything worked just fine really nice. However after installing door back nothing was working. Removed door panel to check all connections and everything was good. Re-installed door panel connected back car neg cable and lights came back on. Turned off the car came back later and no lights 🙁. I checked all ambient light fuses just in case and they are all good. At this point just going to leave it as is for now till I get in the right frame of mind to deal with it. Kind of frustrated it didn't work out like yours and I fellow your video installing by the T.
The only issue I had on mine, is the back right door color was completely different. I found one cycling through the colors, it didn't have red. I took the door panel back off and found simply one of the connectors the pins had backed out. I was able to push the pins back in and then plug in the connector and everything worked fine. I'm wondering if it's something similar to yours. Obviously it's a lot of labor, but you could swap a module from one side to the other two. If all else fails, call DMP or Alibaba wherever you got it
@@ExoticCarDIY Thanks for the headsup.. I checked the pins and they look fine. Whatever is going I'm guessing it has to do with that front right door module. I contacted DMP car design with the issue. Waiting on their reply. Thanks again.
@@ExoticCarDIY So I discovered the culprit of my ambient light issues. It was my car battery which was going bad. Took it to a friend who owns a automotive battery shop and suggested we leave it charging over night. Battery was a Mercedes brand and already 4 years old. Got a high quality direct replacement better than OEM battery. Before installing new battery I disconnected the main module . After installing new battery reconnected main module and bingo lights! Every thing seems to be working perfectly and noticed when I open the trunk ambient lights come on as well.
@@joea1746 Awesome! yah, its really weird but even a weak but functional battery can cause all kinds of odd, random issues. Mine was 5 years old but seemed fine, the ECO mode never engaged. new battery, all good
@@ExoticCarDIY And taught I was in the clear, lights stopped working again. Turns out it wasn't the battery even though I needed one. It's the main module for sure and I ain't going to remove that passenger front door panel again til I received a new module. DMP Car Design has provided amazing customer service throughout the entire time. I sent them videos and they are going to send me a new main module. Question I wanted to ask you. This last time when the lights were working I noticed when I open the trunk the lights came on as well. Then turn off when trunk was shut. Does this happen to you? Thanks for the previous replies 👍.
Fixing to finally install 64 color ambient lighting kit on my E400. Noticed in your install video you didn't disconnect the neg battery cable before installing your kit.
Bonjour j’ai regardé la vidéo et vraiment vous avez très bien expliqué sauf que j’ai pas compris le moment où vous soudez les câbles entre eux vous dites que je l’ai connecté au phare avant. Est ce que vous pouvez m’expliquer en détail comment le faire s’il vous plaît ?
The only soldering involved is because you have to pass wires through the very small area of the door. If you can somehow slip the connector through, you would not have to solder the wires back together. But most people have found it impossible to get the connector through.
Hello, I am interested in purchasing your 12-color ambient lighting upgrade kit for my Mercedes-Benz W212. However, my vehicle is a 2009 model, which is the pre-facelift version. I noticed that many kits are designed for the facelift models (2013 and later), so I wanted to confirm if your kit is compatible with the older W212 models like mine. Additionally, could you please explain how the color control works with your kit? Does it come with its own controller (such as a remote or an app), or does it integrate with the existing vehicle controls? Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your reply. Best regards,
I'm afraid I don't have a new link, I'm not sure who's currently selling this kit, it was DMP design, and they may still have it on their website. Others have reported getting this kit from different sellers for cheaper. Again, I have no affiliation with anybody
Thanks for the videos! I used your code to buy the kit!!! Can you make a tutorial how to install the footwell lights? Can’t figure out how to install that part.
@@basketball798 it's rare but I've experienced a couple catastrophic battery failures where they just suddenly had no voltage. You're going to have to troubleshoot a little bit, get a voltage and see if the battery has voltage. It's possible that your car has a drain and that's what's killing the battery. If the battery has full charge, you may have blown some of the main fuses. Or you might have a bad power bus. I've not experienced this in an e-class before
@@basketball798 an electrical drain means there is a fault somewhere in the system that is sucking power when it's not supposed to. My neighbor has an e55 with this issue, on his turned out to be a short in the side mirrors defroster. Anyway you will need a voltage gauge (Google digital multimeter), start by just checking the voltage of the main battery
Great video! Could you please share how to make it cycle through all the colors over a period of time not just display one color? ... can't find how to do that setting ...
Sure, when you go through all the colors, you'll have two next to each other that kind of start out white, kind of like they're out of place. those are the cycling colors one cycles through fast one cycles through slow
@@ExoticCarDIY Perfect! Thanks you! I am just 70% done with the install and also made a video. (maybe uploading is as well at some point later this month) Thanks to your channel I found this mod! 🙏🏻Besides the Apple CarPlay upgrade/mod, this one here is for visual improvements the best and has that great OEM feel level. Thanks again and have a great day!
How do you get your led lights to work my bro! I had some on my e500 for park lights but bought some new ones and it shat the bed and started flashing uncontrollably. What Brand of led light do you use ?
Thank you! You did a great job. I'm sorry for my English. Its great instruction to make same things. I'm looking for same kit from aliexpress, but there are only 12 colors, and it change from command. I don't know how make an order from dmp to Russia =( Now i try to find what's different between dmp kit and aliexpress kit =)
Amazing video 👌👌 Just a question as this was 2 years ago and different kits are available now for example like those that come with the light strips that have to be attached and you can control them from an app. Have you come across one? My question is about brightness. I assume any other kit with the light steipes will outperform this one in terms of brightness?
I'm not had a chance to try out any of those kits with all aftermarket lights, I would assume that they are brighter since these are just a single emitter with a light pipe versus strips with multiple LEDs. My goal was not a crazy light show, it was to essentially have an improvement to the OEM setup, more colors, significantly brighter, although still controlled and installed like the OEM version.
I want to do this so bad on my s550 w221 but on their website, it has the option for 1 ambient lighting when my s class comes with 3 lights but it isn’t an option. I’m so nervous to buy what do you suggest bro? Amazing video by the way.
Amazing video I have a w212 e350 with single color ambient light which is like a orange color would this kit work for my car even tho I don't got the 3 color kit like urs
They do make a kit for yours. When you go to order from them, there is a selection for either an oem 3 or OEM one color unit. As long as you get the correct unit for your car this will work
When you flip through all the different colors one at a time, you'll get to a lighter color that blinks twice. That is the demo that cycles through all the colors over maybe a 5-minute period or so
Hi I appreciate you for the video. I already have the kit an cannot wait to install it. My question is when u did the main console trim there is another connecter there in the middle, do u leave that empty somewhere or there is a place to plug it? its in the 16:00 min video. I would really appreciate if you could help on that
Just leave it unplugged. It's there if you want to connect it to more lights. Some people add footwell lights they even make a kit if you have the B&O speakers.
Three of the doors require no running wires whatsoever. You simply just plug into the door module in each door. The only wire running in the video is shown near the end, it's the wires from front right passenger door to the dash. It's pretty easy. Video explains it all
Installed a similar kit in my 2013 CLS and sometimes I'm unable to change the colour from the settings menu, I can change the brightness but sometimes not the colour. I find when I can't change the colour it reverts back to the default "blue" colour. I've checked all connections and seems fine. Any ideas what it could be?
hi, anyone else have similar problem like I do? Basically my drivers door lights up constantly in red colour even when I turn them off from the steering wheel button. Drivers door continue lighting up in red and obviously when all lights are on drivers door is not matching the colour with the rest of the doors and dashboard. I've ordered new replacement module due to suspicious of defective. And then new one arrived installed it and it fixed the issue with the drivers door but all other doors and dashboard are not working at all with the new module?
Usually if you ordered it from DMP, they'll fix it right away regardless. The back door was a completely different color. I found one I scroll through all the colors that it was missing red. Which obviously affects the other colors as well. When I inspected the harness, I found that one of the pins had just slightly backed out of the connector. Pushing it back in, fixed everything. Maybe you can check the harnesses on each connector, make sure none of the pins have backed out of the plug even just tiny bit causing a loss connection on one or more of the colors.
@@ExoticCarDIY Hey so I’m having a similar problem but it’s showing complete opposite colors only on my driver side door handle light only, not on the actual driver side arm rest light tho. So if the ambient color is blue the driver side door handle light would be red, if it is red the driver side door handle light would be blue. Do you know of any possible fix for this? It just randomly happened out of nowhere after working perfectly fine for a week, It is bugging the heck out of me! Thanks a bunch & I love the video.
@@ExoticCarDIY I’m not sure how that would happen, I guess I’ll try to go in & check out the wiring to see. Thanks for the fast reply, I appreciate it. If I figure it out I’ll let you know what was the issue.
Hey man, I have a 2010 e350 with only the one factory setting orange ambient light. Will this kit work on my car? I have a different steering wheel than you do
When you buy the kit, you have to tell them if your car currently has the single light, or the three light. So they have a kit for each. I'm not sure about the steering wheel, but I believe it will work
If you bought it from DMP, you should be able to switch it from 12 to 64 via the pins inside. You can email them and ask them how. It's pretty easy job, just take your time and try to understand the clips so you don't break anything. By far the hardest part is just trying to feed wire through the door tube. If I was to try it again I would use a very very light string on one side and a vacuum on the other, use the vacuum to suck the string through, and then use the string to pull the wire through
So far I have both of my rear door panel’s done and the drive door.But none of the light are coming on🤔does all four panels have to be installed in order to see them turn on?
As a rule of thumb, it's always good to disconnect your battery anytime you are working on anything electrical. I will admit, I did NOT for this install. I would suggest that you disconnect the battery.
i just came across your channel and i see you make great content but i don’t think this link works anymore for the ambient lighting kit is there another link i may be able to buy this kit from?
I have never installed the footwell lights, so I'm not sure. But I imagine it utilizes the extra plug that is roughly behind the radio when installing the ambient kit in the video
How do you make it cycle and fade in and out? Mine came with no instructions at all. On mine the brightness is controlled with the factory dash screen settings menu and the color with the steering wheel buttons like you showed.
Interesting how it works a little different with yours. On mine, to have it cycle through the colors on its own, you need to manually scroll through the colors, you'll reach one that kind of flashes white at the beginning, if you just leave it there it will cycle through all the colors over like a 5-minute period. Was yours a DMP or an alliexpress kit?
@@ExoticCarDIY AliExpress. I change the Color’s from the steering wheel like you do, but the brightness from the Oem menu in the instrument cluster. Mine is the 12 color and I had to run the wires through the door connector on my ML550.
I assume this would work for a W218 CLS 63 as well as it's the same platform? Also does it matter if the car already came with the interior lighting package or not
I would assume it does, it pretty much off all the same components. I'm sure if you go to their website, it would tell you if this kit works or lists another kit for the w218. Yes you do have to have either the single or three color factory ambient for it to work
@abatin9853 it did not come with instructions, hence why I made the video. Three of the modules are the same, the one that is different and goes in the right front passenger door
It's a pain in the butt. Another method that I was going to mention, is simply you could put a shop back on the hole and use it to suck a lightweight string through. And then use the string to pull the wire harness through. Luckily I was able to get it with my little ghetto Fab zip ties LOL
Hey Kenny I just had the lights installed but I have a new upgraded steering wheel is changing the lights only through the wheel or can be done from screen. The shop that put them can't figure out how to change them
Not sure, I would assume if you're steering wheel still has similar buttons it should work. On the factory steering it's the back button and the hang out, initiate call button. Whatever those buttons are on your new steering wheel, try those. I do not know of any other way to control them
That is correct, it stays whatever color you set it. Actually bought this from a friend who sold his car, and when I installed it in mine it started on the same color that he left his on lol. Like I mentioned as well, there is one mode that slowly cycles through all 64 over like a 10 minute period
Hey man, I am going crazy about a plastic rattle in the back of my e63 and wanted to ask if you could share where I can find some schema on how to remove the rear pillar. Something snapped there and that plastic sound is driving me nuts. Thank you in advance.
I have something similar on my w218, but its 12 color. Just wondering if you noticed the led's controlled by the drivers side module being slightly different in color. It particularly noticeable to me with my b&o tweeters. Maybe it has something to do with the drivers module controlling more leds? Just wondering if you noticed any differences in color.
I have not noticed any difference in color with one exception, one was way off, it appeared red was not working. Turned out to be a wire had just popped out of the connector. Simply putting the wire back fix the issue
@@ExoticCarDIY Another thing I had noticed, does your lighting stay on after locking the car doors even an hour or so later? I noticed mine will stay on for a while after car is locked.
Well you could get brave and try it yourself, I assume maybe the only other people that might want to handle this ria car audio install shop? Might be worth looking to see ones in your area
So if mines a right hand drive. The main module would go on my passenger door which would be on the left is that correct. Basically the main module goes on the passenger front door is that correct? Thanks
@@ExoticCarDIY in the video the main module has more ping holes in the top of the module. This is the one you put in your front passenger door, is this correct. If this is the case then I'll do the same on my passenger door?
@@Alpinatom Yes, that main module does have more pins for it output since it feeds quite a bit more lights than the other ones. However the input plug(the plugs into the MB for module) is the same as the other three. Technically you could put it in any door you just have to run wires to the dash. For that reason alone it makes sense to put in the door adjacent the glove box
Is the ambient module with different plug always go into the right hand side control unit even on right hand drive cars which is my drivers side(uk) and would be your passenger side in states
Hey bro I installed everything correctly all the doors seem to light up but when I connect the control module to the center the center and the right door colors do not match and only show blue or white did I mess up? Or did I damage the diodes?
It's on my w212 I can only make blue white or purple work all together but my center trim and right door can't cycle through the rest of the 64 colors anybody got advice?
If you're running into issues with color, meaning it lights up but it's a different color. Remember the colors are made from mixing the light from the four colors provided in the leds. I ran into an issue or one of my doors had a color that was way different than the other ones. It turned out it was missing red. I pulled the panel off and found that one of the wires had backed out of the connector so red was not being turned on. I pushed the pin back into the plug and it worked perfect after I was done. I assume something similar is going on with your center connection, one of the lights is not connected and that's why the color is different
Hello, after some time after I installed this ambient light kit, an error related to the sam and actuation module appeared on the service tester and I understood that it would be related to the fact that the car needs more voltage because of the kit ambient lights. Has anyone encountered this problem? any idea how i could solve this situation? Thanks in advance for the answers
we fixed the issue with SAM mode errors. It was an imperfect connection because those white plugs in the ambient light kit are not as accurate as the original ones, so you have to be careful when making the connections, to make sure that the plugs are properly clipped. So everything is fine now, I left this message, maybe someone else has this problem
@@ucduste6372 you can do it man, take your time, if you get sick on something, like clip, slow down, try to understand it, and use the appropriate pick, or tool to open it. I think the vent removal and fishing the harness through the pass for was the hardest for me
Yes, as long as your car either has the OEM three color, or OEM one color ambient lights. Before you add it to your cart, you just select what system you're car has
@@ExoticCarDIY oh, I guess mine doesn’t have that feature then. That’s got to be the only difference of the Chinese Alibaba version from DMP version. 😂 And I’m pretty sure that there was a switch inside each module to enable that feature.
W212 E63 is still my dream car! The new E-Class is nice, but the W212 is (in my humble opinion) by far the best looking E-Class ever made! I did drive a 2014 E63 years ago and that experience only cemented my love for that car! 👍🏼

At this point just going to leave it as is for now till I get in the right frame of mind to deal with it. Kind of frustrated it didn't work out like yours and I fellow your video installing by the T.
The only issue I had on mine, is the back right door color was completely different. I found one cycling through the colors, it didn't have red. I took the door panel back off and found simply one of the connectors the pins had backed out. I was able to push the pins back in and then plug in the connector and everything worked fine. I'm wondering if it's something similar to yours. Obviously it's a lot of labor, but you could swap a module from one side to the other two. If all else fails, call DMP or Alibaba wherever you got it
@@ExoticCarDIY Thanks for the headsup.. I checked the pins and they look fine. Whatever is going I'm guessing it has to do with that front right door module. I contacted DMP car design with the issue. Waiting on their reply. Thanks again.
@@ExoticCarDIY So I discovered the culprit of my ambient light issues. It was my car battery which was going bad. Took it to a friend who owns a automotive battery shop and suggested we leave it charging over night. Battery was a Mercedes brand and already 4 years old. Got a high quality direct replacement better than OEM battery. Before installing new battery I disconnected the main module . After installing new battery reconnected main module and bingo lights! Every thing seems to be working perfectly and noticed when I open the trunk ambient lights come on as well.
@@joea1746 Awesome! yah, its really weird but even a weak but functional battery can cause all kinds of odd, random issues. Mine was 5 years old but seemed fine, the ECO mode never engaged. new battery, all good
@@ExoticCarDIY And taught I was in the clear, lights stopped working again. Turns out it wasn't the battery even though I needed one. It's the main module for sure and I ain't going to remove that passenger front door panel again til I received a new module. DMP Car Design has provided amazing customer service throughout the entire time. I sent them videos and they are going to send me a new main module. Question I wanted to ask you. This last time when the lights were working I noticed when I open the trunk the lights came on as well. Then turn off when trunk was shut. Does this happen to you? Thanks for the previous replies 👍.
Fixing to finally install 64 color ambient lighting kit on my E400. Noticed in your install video you didn't disconnect the neg battery cable before installing your kit.
Nope lol. I would recommend you do however
Bonjour j’ai regardé la vidéo et vraiment vous avez très bien expliqué sauf que j’ai pas compris le moment où vous soudez les câbles entre eux vous dites que je l’ai connecté au phare avant. Est ce que vous pouvez m’expliquer en détail comment le faire s’il vous plaît ?
The only soldering involved is because you have to pass wires through the very small area of the door.
If you can somehow slip the connector through, you would not have to solder the wires back together. But most people have found it impossible to get the connector through.
very high quality video thank you so much
You're welcome, thanks for watching.

Hello,
I am interested in purchasing your 12-color ambient lighting upgrade kit for my Mercedes-Benz W212. However, my vehicle is a 2009 model, which is the pre-facelift version. I noticed that many kits are designed for the facelift models (2013 and later), so I wanted to confirm if your kit is compatible with the older W212 models like mine.
Additionally, could you please explain how the color control works with your kit? Does it come with its own controller (such as a remote or an app), or does it integrate with the existing vehicle controls?
Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your reply.
Best regards,
Hey Kenny was wondering do you have a new link cause the one on the description isn’t working anymore 😢
I'm afraid I don't have a new link, I'm not sure who's currently selling this kit, it was DMP design, and they may still have it on their website. Others have reported getting this kit from different sellers for cheaper. Again, I have no affiliation with anybody
Thanks for the videos! I used your code to buy the kit!!!
Can you make a tutorial how to install the footwell lights? Can’t figure out how to install that part.
Pretty sure they plug into that extra harness that's by the radio. However I have never gotten around to ordering the footwell kit, I need to
Great video man! Unfortunately I'm here because my 2014 e63 AMG won't start. Has no power at all. I hope it's just the battery
Likely the main battery up front.
@@ExoticCarDIY still doesn't make sense I replaced it last year. My first battery was original over 6 years old
@@basketball798 it's rare but I've experienced a couple catastrophic battery failures where they just suddenly had no voltage.
You're going to have to troubleshoot a little bit, get a voltage and see if the battery has voltage. It's possible that your car has a drain and that's what's killing the battery. If the battery has full charge, you may have blown some of the main fuses. Or you might have a bad power bus. I've not experienced this in an e-class before
@@ExoticCarDIY what does it mean when you says the car might have a drain? I don't understand. And how would I check voltage?
@@basketball798 an electrical drain means there is a fault somewhere in the system that is sucking power when it's not supposed to. My neighbor has an e55 with this issue, on his turned out to be a short in the side mirrors defroster.
Anyway you will need a voltage gauge (Google digital multimeter), start by just checking the voltage of the main battery
Great video, it’ll be nice if u can share with us where to purchase those dashboard trim ambient light from

Amazing video 👌👌 Just a question as this was 2 years ago and different kits are available now for example like those that come with the light strips that have to be attached and you can control them from an app. Have you come across one? My question is about brightness. I assume any other kit with the light steipes will outperform this one in terms of brightness?
I'm not had a chance to try out any of those kits with all aftermarket lights, I would assume that they are brighter since these are just a single emitter with a light pipe versus strips with multiple LEDs.
My goal was not a crazy light show, it was to essentially have an improvement to the OEM setup, more colors, significantly brighter, although still controlled and installed like the OEM version.
Could you please post a link of where you got the kit from
Thanks great work!

Haha, yup.
Hi ! looks cool ! Just the question how to slide the wires through the rear door loom ?
Three of the doors require no running wires whatsoever. You simply just plug into the door module in each door.
The only wire running in the video is shown near the end, it's the wires from front right passenger door to the dash. It's pretty easy. Video explains it all
This is awesome, what kit do I need for a 2015 gl550 ?
Installed a similar kit in my 2013 CLS and sometimes I'm unable to change the colour from the settings menu, I can change the brightness but sometimes not the colour. I find when I can't change the colour it reverts back to the default "blue" colour. I've checked all connections and seems fine. Any ideas what it could be?
Hello! Great work, does it work on a 2012 w204? With the steering wheel controls
I'm not sure? You can contact DMP car design and ask them, it may or there may be a kit for the w204
hi, anyone else have similar problem like I do?
Basically my drivers door lights up constantly in red colour even when I turn them off from the steering wheel button. Drivers door continue lighting up in red and obviously when all lights are on drivers door is not matching the colour with the rest of the doors and dashboard.
I've ordered new replacement module due to suspicious of defective. And then new one arrived installed it and it fixed the issue with the drivers door but all other doors and dashboard are not working at all with the new module?
Usually if you ordered it from DMP, they'll fix it right away regardless.
The back door was a completely different color. I found one I scroll through all the colors that it was missing red. Which obviously affects the other colors as well. When I inspected the harness, I found that one of the pins had just slightly backed out of the connector. Pushing it back in, fixed everything.
Maybe you can check the harnesses on each connector, make sure none of the pins have backed out of the plug even just tiny bit causing a loss connection on one or more of the colors.
@@ExoticCarDIY Hey so I’m having a similar problem but it’s showing complete opposite colors only on my driver side door handle light only, not on the actual driver side arm rest light tho. So if the ambient color is blue the driver side door handle light would be red, if it is red the driver side door handle light would be blue. Do you know of any possible fix for this? It just randomly happened out of nowhere after working perfectly fine for a week, It is bugging the heck out of me! Thanks a bunch & I love the video.
@@joeyk2553 I would be just guessing here, did somehow the wires come pulled out of a plug and shoved in in a different order?
@@ExoticCarDIY I’m not sure how that would happen, I guess I’ll try to go in & check out the wiring to see. Thanks for the fast reply, I appreciate it. If I figure it out I’ll let you know what was the issue.
I have a 2013 preface e63. I only have the option to dim the ambient lights. Is there a module or something I need to get colors?
Yes, this will work for your car, just make sure you click the single color option when you order it.
Hey man, I have a 2010 e350 with only the one factory setting orange ambient light. Will this kit work on my car? I have a different steering wheel than you do
When you buy the kit, you have to tell them if your car currently has the single light, or the three light. So they have a kit for each. I'm not sure about the steering wheel, but I believe it will work
Hello, does it should programming with OBD or anything... to control the Led in instrument cluster and with steering wheel buttons.
No programming
Man your videos are friken top-notch wow. I have the kit at home just been scared to do it lol.. mine is the 12 color. Is there a difference
If you bought it from DMP, you should be able to switch it from 12 to 64 via the pins inside. You can email them and ask them how.
It's pretty easy job, just take your time and try to understand the clips so you don't break anything. By far the hardest part is just trying to feed wire through the door tube. If I was to try it again I would use a very very light string on one side and a vacuum on the other, use the vacuum to suck the string through, and then use the string to pull the wire through
@@ExoticCarDIY where are the pins?? On the little boxes you mean?
@@Berti_00 inside the main box, open it up and there are 2 pins you can move... But they're not labeled so either trial and error or email DMP
@Exotic Car DIY I gott figure out which one is the main box. There is 4 boxes
@@Berti_00 there's one with a bigger plug... Pass door, the other three are identical
So far I have both of my rear door panel’s done and the drive door.But none of the light are coming on🤔does all four panels have to be installed in order to see them turn on?
The front passenger door is the main controlling module
Did ambient lighting come in all of them or was based on what the original owner ordered?
Not sure, I'm guessing it was standard on most of the trim levels.
Some had 3 colors, others just one
great video, had a question thought where did you get that power source splitter that you were powering the light box on the doors?
I believe you're referring to the larger white plug? There is one white plug that comes from the car harness, the y splitter is in the kit
@@ExoticCarDIY there’s no way to buy the splitters only?
I don't think so, you could try contacting DMP direct?
I know this is an old video, but how hard was it to swap the plastic tubes over? I’m looking at swapping trim as well. Thank you!
Just be gentle with them, but they are easy
Hi i have w212 2010 and have only one orginal light. Do you think this will work for me also?
Yes, but make sure when you order the kit from dmp, you select from the drop-down "one color" and not three color
Did you disconnect your battery while you were doing the process? Thanks
As a rule of thumb, it's always good to disconnect your battery anytime you are working on anything electrical. I will admit, I did NOT for this install. I would suggest that you disconnect the battery.
@@ExoticCarDIY especially working around them airbags! Yeap agree, disconnect the battery is safest bet.

Any tips on how to do the footwell lighting? I have the same kit that came with the footwell lights, but have no idea where to install it
I have never installed the footwell lights, so I'm not sure. But I imagine it utilizes the extra plug that is roughly behind the radio when installing the ambient kit in the video
How do you make it cycle and fade in and out? Mine came with no instructions at all. On mine the brightness is controlled with the factory dash screen settings menu and the color with the steering wheel buttons like you showed.
Interesting how it works a little different with yours.
On mine, to have it cycle through the colors on its own, you need to manually scroll through the colors, you'll reach one that kind of flashes white at the beginning, if you just leave it there it will cycle through all the colors over like a 5-minute period.
Was yours a DMP or an alliexpress kit?
@@ExoticCarDIY AliExpress. I change the Color’s from the steering wheel like you do, but the brightness from the Oem menu in the instrument cluster. Mine is the 12 color and I had to run the wires through the door connector on my ML550.
Is it more brighter than the original lights? Thanks
Yes, definitely
Thank for your answer. Can you please tell from whete did you get the twitters? I looked on aliexpress but i didn't see for w212. Thank you.
@@sorinsorin8332 my tweeters are OEM Mercedes. They do make an add-on led kit for them, but I don't know who sells it
I assume this would work for a W218 CLS 63 as well as it's the same platform? Also does it matter if the car already came with the interior lighting package or not
I would assume it does, it pretty much off all the same components. I'm sure if you go to their website, it would tell you if this kit works or lists another kit for the w218. Yes you do have to have either the single or three color factory ambient for it to work
@@ExoticCarDIY I got my lighting package. Did your come with instructions? Mine didn't come with any and now I don't know which harness goes where.
@abatin9853 it did not come with instructions, hence why I made the video. Three of the modules are the same, the one that is different and goes in the right front passenger door

Got it from "Suvneer". Install vid czcams.com/video/9C5tHQ4ExX4/video.html
Going through the door connector on my ML550 was a serious pain in the ass.
It's a pain in the butt. Another method that I was going to mention, is simply you could put a shop back on the hole and use it to suck a lightweight string through. And then use the string to pull the wire harness through. Luckily I was able to get it with my little ghetto Fab zip ties LOL
Hey Kenny I just had the lights installed but I have a new upgraded steering wheel is changing the lights only through the wheel or can be done from screen. The shop that put them can't figure out how to change them
Not sure, I would assume if you're steering wheel still has similar buttons it should work. On the factory steering it's the back button and the hang out, initiate call button. Whatever those buttons are on your new steering wheel, try those. I do not know of any other way to control them
Does it save the colour? For example, when you Set it on pink and you Park the car for a day, is it still pink when you unlock the car?
That is correct, it stays whatever color you set it. Actually bought this from a friend who sold his car, and when I installed it in mine it started on the same color that he left his on lol.
Like I mentioned as well, there is one mode that slowly cycles through all 64 over like a 10 minute period

It particularly noticeable to me with my b&o tweeters. Maybe it has something to do with the drivers module controlling more leds? Just wondering if you noticed any differences in color.
I have not noticed any difference in color with one exception, one was way off, it appeared red was not working. Turned out to be a wire had just popped out of the connector. Simply putting the wire back fix the issue

So if mines a right hand drive. The main module would go on my passenger door which would be on the left is that correct. Basically the main module goes on the passenger front door is that correct?
Thanks
Good question. I believe you are correct, it would go in your left front door.
@@ExoticCarDIY in the video the main module has more ping holes in the top of the module. This is the one you put in your front passenger door, is this correct. If this is the case then I'll do the same on my passenger door?
@@Alpinatom Yes, that main module does have more pins for it output since it feeds quite a bit more lights than the other ones. However the input plug(the plugs into the MB for module) is the same as the other three. Technically you could put it in any door you just have to run wires to the dash. For that reason alone it makes sense to put in the door adjacent the glove box

Hey bro I installed everything correctly all the doors seem to light up but when I connect the control module to the center the center and the right door colors do not match and only show blue or white did I mess up? Or did I damage the diodes?
It's on my w212 I can only make blue white or purple work all together but my center trim and right door can't cycle through the rest of the 64 colors anybody got advice?
If you're running into issues with color, meaning it lights up but it's a different color. Remember the colors are made from mixing the light from the four colors provided in the leds. I ran into an issue or one of my doors had a color that was way different than the other ones. It turned out it was missing red. I pulled the panel off and found that one of the wires had backed out of the connector so red was not being turned on. I pushed the pin back into the plug and it worked perfect after I was done. I assume something similar is going on with your center connection, one of the lights is not connected and that's why the color is different

Does yours currently have the factory ambient lights? If it does, than it should
Hello, after some time after I installed this ambient light kit, an error related to the sam and actuation module appeared on the service tester and I understood that it would be related to the fact that the car needs more voltage because of the kit ambient lights. Has anyone encountered this problem? any idea how i could solve this situation? Thanks in advance for the answers
we fixed the issue with SAM mode errors. It was an imperfect connection because those white plugs in the ambient light kit are not as accurate as the original ones, so you have to be careful when making the connections, to make sure that the plugs are properly clipped. So everything is fine now, I left this message, maybe someone else has this problem
