I’ve installed these about two months ago. Quite happy with them. The only thing to watch out for is.... the light strips are wrapped with tin foil. So when you try to slip them into the cracks, they have a tendency to kind of rip of a little bit. This creates dark spots on the light strips. So be careful when putting them in. Other than that, I’m pretty happy with them. And I installed them on my w204 C350 coupe.
Excellent and clear video, thank you
Looks great! I approve this mod!
Amazing what these guys can do
Love seeing a 204 video this time of year! 🔥🔥🔥
Excellent. New project!!
too easy ive purchased and will install this weekend ty mr flex
Everything else is easy but the doors lol I’m scared to do the doors lol 😂
Ay bro I just got a c204!! I'll be watching all your mercedes how to's
Hi
This video is also a good one.
I'm always watching your videos well.
My car is w204, and I want to do many things, but I don't have enough time and skills.
I'll try to change the navigation soon after I watch your video. Haha
Damn!!! thats alot of work ... very beautiful result though
it looks hard but i think its not that bad. i will record myself doing it soon.
I’ve grabbed a couple of DMP products. I love how they support the w204
The owner still has a w204 so he keeps finding stuff for it. Which is cool.
They need to upload a video for this. www.dmpcardesign.com/12-colours-b-o-3d-tweeter-speaker-sound-audio-for-mercedes-benz-cla-gla-cls-e-ml-gl-gle-gls-class-w218-w117-x156-w212-w207-w166-w292?search=w207#preview-1
Wow. I didn’t even know they had that.
cool , thanks :)
You did a great job explaining about perfect 👍🏾, also.. you think I could just bring my car to them so they can do it for me ? 😂
if you can ship your car to malaysia..lol
Any news on the old spoiler winner? I've finished a few mods to my car thanks to you including side view sequential blinkers, puddle light logos, light up front star, and soon the rear sequential light bar. My new front splitter and gt style black grill are otw. Still need a spoiler though. But I'm thinking an acrylic espresso bronze/brown with black accents. I have "lunar blue" rn which shows every micro scratch.
I installed this in my W204 C63 a few months ago, very nice so far but pretty difficult to install
I was gonna order but my w204 don't have an original door handle light. I hope he was gonna show where to drill the hole on door handle and will it will fit ok.
I recommend tapping into the automatic lights so at night they turn on. I did them like that with generic ambient lights on Amazon/ebay.
How do you tap into the automatic lights?
would love to know how you did it too
Hey, where can I find a cable which is powered up with the automatic lights??
Hi mate i have the w176 vent kit but no controller to plug in do you know where i can get that, great job on it tho 👍 thanks
Hello Flexx. I am installing a newer generation of the same product into my car. In your video you show that the door ambient light module is connected to the red/white cable (I made a measurement and it is the permanent Plus connection to the battery). Is it safe to do this, will it not drain my battery?
Can you show where u conect the possiteve and negative en the back doors?
Stupid question but can this be done on a c43 coupe 2018? I am too scared to do the 64 ambient kit with vents but thats what I would do if this does not work for my car specifications. I saw the older version video and it showed that it does but now the new version is for 2008-2014 as per the title and your description. Cheers boss!!
Great vid,how do you tap the wires in?
Thinking of doing this on my 2012 w204
There’s tons of videos on UA-cam. No hate but I would suggest you learn and practice before attempting anything like this install.
Would it work with an ML350 W166? Wouldit be better than the wireless ambient kit?
Could this be done on an Alfa Romero Giulia?
bought a set for D4 A8 and just my luck the sender unit is busted...
wont change colours from the button, nor can i connect to it via bluetooth.
Might do this to my 507
gonn evening, if y connect red-white and brown, supply was stopped when i turn off motor? bye. patrick
Do you think you'll do an ambient light install on the b8 a4 like you considered in your plans when you revealed the car a while back?
Im halfway done with the install. So far...it’s fire!
@@TheFlexxGarage Really looking forward to it!
Hey quick question, are the strips enough to have it also at the front of the dashboard as he did not install it at the front in the vid ?
I wanna say yes but you have to check with dmp.
why did you put it on the dash too ?
A small question please if someone could answer quickly.
What do you do with the original footwell lights? Do i unplug them or would you have them on along with the new footwell lights? So both will be on?
Just put some electrical tape over it and tuck it away. If you unplug, the car might detect an error and have a stored fault in the ecu.
Is this avaliable for Europe?
Hi, all 4 doors wiring do not have to be linked? will the color not be the same?
They all work together wirelessly
Hey Flexx, do you still have the old video for the previous ambient kit from amp? I need to remove this kit to put this one in...
This one? ua-cam.com/video/MgKO60ITwCo/v-deo.html
Or this one? ua-cam.com/video/rDCW40JfEDs/v-deo.html
Does all 4 doors have the white plug to connect the red and brown wire?
Yes all 4 doors have a fuse box which you need to tap into. The video shows which connectors you need to splice and solder into
Hello brother, I have now also started to retrofit my W204 but I have only found continuous current and no ignition plus
Don’t know. Reach out to DMP for tech support if you bought the kit from them. They can get you squared away with the install.
Do you know how long the little light strips are i have a 14 lexus IS but not sure if those light strips will be long enough
It’s pretty long. Should be no problem for an IS.
@@TheFlexxGarage cheers!
Will this work on a 2013 w204 coupe and if so what is the difference between the the 4 doors?
Of course it will work. Only difference is you only need to do 2 doors instead of 4.
Schedule in app not working :s
Can u refer me to an hid kit for the w204 usr headlights please the link in the videos is out of stock
you would need to contact USR directly. Only they have a recommended HID kit that works for their headlights. I don't recommend getting your own HID kit somewhere else since it probably won't be compatible.
Where can I go to get this kinda stuff installed for me?
just google "We install Ambient Light" in any car .. you should find one around you, all automobile electricians do it
I prefer as it is from the manufacture company Mercedes.
I do too but Mercedes doesn’t make ambient kits you can install after you bought your car.
For a C207?
Hey flexx, I have a w204, I been subscribed for a long time, I live in MA, I wanted to do this ambient light but I dont wanna go to the last guy that installed a screen from dmp, side mirrow lights, and my camera, how about I buy everything, and I pay you for installing it in my car, and maybe u can do a full video? 😬😬😬just dreaming ahah, love ur videos bro, thank u.
I don’t work on peoples cars
@@TheFlexxGarage ok bro😁👍🏻
Could I use this kit for my 2021 Toyota Corolla xse ???
I think you can. You need to contact DMP and have them double check.
Toyota is trash 2021 and doesn’t have factory ambient lighting and has 150HP ew
Flexx you are the only one that can help me , i search alot on interner and nothing , please answer me something, i upgrade the rear bumper with the amg sport look without holes for parking sensor , now i just buy the amg diffuser but comes with 2 holes just in the front of the diffuser one in the left one in the right , are those holes for sensor too ? Whats the name ? Thanks i will appreciate you alot
Yeh those are sensor holes. Go watch my diffuser videos and you’ll see them on my diffuser. my diffuser came with caps to cover the holes.
@@TheFlexxGarage thanks flexx for your time writing me back appreciate you alot i saw the diffuser video already like 20 times 😆 , i am a fan of you channel, hope my new diffuser comes with those caps too 😬 , good day bro
thats cool but why u not changed the ugly yellow lights from the seat memory and the door oener to a nice white LED ?
That involves about 100 time's more work than the ambient light installation. That's why
The 12 v supply is constant at door on this connector?
Yes. The door lights have constant power but they aren’t turned on until the main box sends a signal to the door box module to turn on.
@TheFlexxGarage can the brightness of these be adjusted? Wouldn't want them being too bright whilst driving
@@NastyRhythmyeah it can
Stupid question but will it work on w204 C300? I seen other models but not the C300...
W204 = all c-class 2008-2014. It’s clearly in the video thumbnail, in the title of the video, and it was mentioned in the video.
Will this work on different vehicles like the other kit you did
Yea. This is the newer version of that kit.
What If U don't have door handle light like in this vids? Some w204 doesn't
then don't connect them. Simple. You don't need to use parts you don't want lit up.
@@TheFlexxGarage I still want the door consule light like in this vids tho. Possible? Don't care too much about door handle
Does DMPcardesign install them for you if you need them too
Yes.... if you ship your car to Malaysia...😅😅
🤣
Can I use it for 2022 Acura MDX?
Probably. Just need to know where to tap for a power source to the main harness and the receiver boxes for the doors.
@@TheFlexxGarage the car come with it for the door.. I was trying to use it for the dashboard area... Is it still possible?
Do you guys think this product can be used for other cars?
yes
Can you instwll the app on the screen?
Unfortunately no, I installed simmiler ambient light kit on my 2012 w204 with the android 11 screen downloaded the app on the car screen , it's couldn't communicate or connect to the lights controller but worked fine on the phone , tried to chang the permissions sittings etc but nothing worked, eventually I gived up and used only my phone to control it
@@youssefomar3629 No U r wrong ...I can control the ambient from the android screen. Just enable your Bluetooth on your oem screen instead of your android and download the ambient light apps it will work just like on the phone
Please what is the name of the app
I’m First!!!!
How do I tell if I have a W204 w205? I have a 2017 c300
Look at the video title
dude just google w204 interior and w205 interior.. if u cant see the obvious differnce from the body outside.
@Hellboz So it’s based on the year then. Gotcha
@@TheFlexxGarage okay and then what? 😂😂
W205 is 2015+ excluding the new w206
My kit did not come with the QR code. I need to know what app to download
did you buy it from DMP car design? If you did, then you need to contact them. If you didnt, then that’s a different kit and you need to reach to whoever sold you the kit. Not all kits are the same.
You need to get another W204, the views have been dead since you sold yours
Hahahah. You must be living under a rock if you think my views are dead. You know I have 3 cars and one is an R8. My UA-cam is better than ever. No point in getting a 204 when I already did almost every mod available for it.
He has you mistaken for me lol
Lol. Still love the fox body vids. I watch em all.
no update on the ambient light for the A4
try to get it done this weekend
@@TheFlexxGarage can't wait for the tutorial
Damn thats way too much work for ambient lights lol!!! Smh i think ill pass..
Not a lot of work if you know what you’re doing. That’s why theres install shops for people who don’t have the skills/time.
