they look spectacular and they look like original OEM, I put the same led air vents in my W176 here en Chile (64 colors), greetings from Chile.
Great instructional video. Very professional and speed the camera when needed. One of the best how to videos I’ve seen.
Flexx. You helped me out when I was doing mods to my c250. I don’t have that car no more but your videos were the most concise and I thank you for that brother. ✌🏼
Thanks!
You nailed it! I don’t care who says otherwise! ☺️ Here for the postive energy only..PERIODt!
Next level!! Looks amazing 🤩
I love how you make thing seem easy
naw fr he do
I know right... very professional
Cause it is easy
Flexx great video. I've been waiting for this one and as usual you didn''t disappoint. Very clear and concise. I have been purchasing components from DMP after every video. (except for the dashboard sign. Not really my style) I know it's more expensive that way but I have been waiting for your videos to see how difficult the install was for you. I will be making the purchase for these air vents soon. This looks easier than the 3d tweeter and door trim install. That took me about 12 hours total to complete. Many thanks again and I'm looking forward to episode #5
I've been watching you since I also had a w204 its so nice to still have your help with my w205 👌🙌 Thank for your time and effort flexx
Happy to help!
Thanks - Great details, now you got me itching to get one and install it myself.
Ughhhh I’m so jealous. Yours looks so 🔥. The video is so good I almost feel like I could do it myself. You did an amazing job as usual. Very informative. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks!
Keep em coming benz project 🥵❤️🏆
Nice clean install looks OEM. Awesome! 👍
thanks. I'm super happy how they turned out. Hard work but worth it.
Its really very good and helpful as you describe installation process step by step
Another one!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Looks great. Awesome
Job.
Very clear. Nice job bro. Keep up the good works.
Dope vids bro. Always clear and never over explained to the point where it becomes difficult. Simple and straight to the point. About how long would you say this would take the normal person? If you could also say time wise how long for each of the first three videos that would be really helpful. Also. Would you recommend doing vids 1-4 in one day seeing as parts and trim would already be removed?
Great video and and those vents look awesome. I have a 2020 C43 Coupe and not sure if I have the guts to do it yet.
Great video yet again! Shame they are not compatible on my Class V.... Keep up the good work! Thank you!
Well, i was thinking about buying a complete ambient light pack for few months now, but didn't found a real good video to install it, looks like i can now go for this beauty ! Thanks man!
I have tons of videos on it. A whole series. And if you ever have questions, just message DMP
That's great, thanks !@@TheFlexxGarage
Always feel free to post questions in the comment section related to the video. I’ll try my best to respond or I bet someone in our Benz community will chime in as well. 😎🤙🏼
Thanks, already bought the mercedes led star few days ago ! I'm looking for the Maxton Kit too@@TheFlexxGarage
Man.. I really want those style vents on the w204. I love them so much, looks like turbines lol
Hey man love this series, I suggest maybe a price breakdown of the entire car from the first day throughout the mods I would love to see if I could afford this one day!
Hey man, great videos! I really appreciate the step by step installations. DMP design got a different (newer) version of the ambient light kit that u did in episode 1. Is it possible if u can make a new video on how to install that? That would be really helpful!
NICEEEE looks very very good!
Hey Felexxx!…I wanted to say thanks for all of your videos helps us all!!…I have a 2020 Mbz c63s sedan!…I have the original ambient lighting that comes with my car!…I wanted to ask you if you know anyone or can recommend someone in Southern Califorina???….that can do the installation for my air vents??…thx!!! Plz let me know????
Great video! I was wondering if you were ever going to retrofit the steering wheel to a 2018 one. Maybe even a digital tachometer?
Thanks for sharing!
Hi, your videos are so well done and informative that I have to ask you for more. I recently ordered the Racechip GTS+ from Germany, and I would like to be absolutely sure of my install. The install involves three sensors including, the turbo pressure sensor, the MAP sensor, and the camshaft sensor. Btw I own a 2016 c300 4matic.
Still fish bowl my boy! Nice build!
Hi love your videos! I wanted to ask, do i need to install the main wiring harness that you installed in episode one ?
You make want to get this kit so bad it looks sick
I’m so glad you do how 2s because almost no one if none has tutorials on W205s I watch all your videos
Side question what do you prefer to drive the c300 or your Audi A4?
Good job bro
That carbon fibre center console cover is VERY nice. But Houston's climate is much too hot for that. Seared forearms every day in summer.
Great How To video @Flexx this tutorial might just give me the confidence to install myself. I have my trusty trim removal kit and pick tools kit.... but I also need to swap my center console. I have the Ash Wood like your wife’s but purchased an OEM Carbon center stack. The Piano Black sides are scratched and scuffed. Have you had any experience swapping just that outer trim ring?
Sorry, I haven't and don't really have plans to. I assume they should be pretty straight forward???
Waow very coooool !!!!!!!👍👍👍☺☺
Great vid 👍
Thanks 👍
Flexx did you see the Starlight kit for the sunroof dmp has? 👌
Hello Alexander, i really enjoy your videos, im from Europe, Romania, and i wanted to ask you if there is any professional provider for MB ambient lights, you installed in u rC-class, here in Europe?
If you know, by chance, do I still need the OBD2 Box for the vents if I already have the factory 64-color lighting in an X253 (2022 GLC 300)?
If I DO NOT need the OBD2 hub, do you know how I would wire the vents into the already existing system?
If I DO need the OBD2 hub, do you have any idea if it syncs with/its possible to sync with the factory lighting system? Struggling to find guides/info on that.
Or do I maybe need to/should I get a kit with a remote/Bluetooth instead, just in case wiring into the existing system is not possible/OB2 won't sync/work? Again, don't feel pressured if you don't know, I just didn't know if you have any input since you have gone through the installation before, and the vents for X253 are the same ones in the W205.
Thank you in advance! :)
Love it
Hi can ambient lighting be upgraded from 3 to 64 colors in a 2017 c300 coupe? I always see it done on a 4 door car??
Do you have any advice on removing the armrest from the center console?
Which kit did you install and sort of confused by the package section stuff
Would this work on my coupe amg line? I’ll do a video if it does.
How the quality of these aftermarket vents? plastic looks a bit ordinary or maybe just the paint job.
How do you get the ambient light to work? Where did you connect the wiring to get it all work together I’m confused
Great video, quick question tho! I have a c205 c63 and I already have the ambient light package however the air vents and burmeister speakers do not have the ambient lighting.
Therefore if I want to change the air vents for example, Is the steps the same as this video or different?
yes and no. The wiring is gonna be different. You need to contact DMP car design and ask them what kit to get and how to wire it up to your existing system.
@Fleex Alexander, love your videos! Can you help me with Led vents but in an Audi a3 sedan? i mean where I can but ambient led vents for a audi ?
Can’t wait till I find I spot out here in San Antonio. I’m gonna do by c300. And get my dads c63s done
You laced your wife car. Mine wants to get the 2020 cal 45. She deserves it.
Deng son you must have worked hard this weekend for such a late upload-Respect ✊
Bro, this video kicked my ass. Probably one of my hardest video to shoot. And if you noticed..I finally got a legit mic to do voiceovers. That voiceover took like 3 hours to do alone. lol. As long as you guys appreciate it, I'm happy.
@@TheFlexxGarage 💯 always appreciate the effort especially knowing this is not your full time gig. Get some rest another big day tomorrow 🤙
I wanted to know can if there is a ambient light kit upgrade to 64 colors for a c300 Mercedes 2 dr coupe and what type of place would install it in Memphis TN
Can I install the 64 color air vents if I have the original 3 color ambient lighting?
Hey Flexx, I wasnt sure about where the new kits main wiring harness gets plugged into since they moved it to the doorside mirror and also how do you control it with the door side mirror controls? Could you possibly make a short video showing this?
I don’t have that version to install. DMP has a video if you reach out to them.
Hi, is there anything for my w209 clk? Or can I use the same kit.
I don’t have any free wire connection under my footwell? please help! everything installed, just can’t power up ambient light vent
hello does it work for glc?
if my c300 already factory installed 3 absent color option how to i upgrade that and how would the connection work you videos only show adding it from scratch. please email or reply thanks
This is amazing!! I have a 2015 GLA250, I live in Brooklyn NY do you know where I can get this done on my vehicle?
I’m located in the Bronx I can install it for 300 you’ll need the items it will cost like 850 for complete set up
Hi Bro! Great material 🙌🏼. I have a Mercedes Benz c220, 2015… it doesn’t have the 3 original ambient light, can I still install this or do I need something else? Thank you!
My car doesn’t have any oem kit. Go watch the first video on this ambient install series.
I just installed the kit! How do I change the colors? It’s not working with the obd software update
Flexx how did you install the rear side canards
Looks sick. Can you control the ambient lights from an app from your phone.
No. Go watch episode 1. The controls are there in the beginning.
I need counseling. I have a basic Toyota yet I can’t help but watch these mod videos.
Would do it myself but I’ll probably plug it in all wrong!!
I would like to contact you to discuss how possible would it be for you to do the install to my vehicle. I just bought a 2019 C63 for a price in which at the time I thought was ridiculously low. I now know why I got that 19 C63 for that price, it was literally spec’d with the bare minimum.. No Ambient Lighting!
How much would u charge to do this for my 2017e300
I removed the two screws in the center console but it still won’t come off? Any suggestions
i have a quick question i have the red dongle from DMP and i bought the main ambient harness kit for the center consale and doors and foot lights i want to know after i am done downloading the software do i have to take off the door panel and hook up the white connector from the driver side ambient light door harness to the #3 connector on the driver side door to make sure its working. if you can give some advise please id appreciate it.
Hey did you ever get it working? I just installed everything but the doors and I’m running into the issue of the software not showing and the lights still not powering on
Hi! Is there something for w164?
Is this the same for the cla 250????
Hi
Nice vents
Are these plug and play .I see you installed wire loom for the strips but never see the wire install on connecting to the car👍
Go watch the series of videos. This is video 4
What fuse controls the ambient lights?
hey Flexx as always awesome video. i am going to let a local techinician do that job but quick question, are you controlling the ambient light function from the NTG device? i have x253 and there is an ambient light selector. thans man
Nahh can’t.
Go watch episode one on the controls.
@@TheFlexxGarage thanks man!! as always love your videos...
FLEX I INSTALLED MY AMBIENT LIGHT VENTS BUT THEY ONLY LIGHT UP IN BLUE AND FLICKER INTERMITTENTLY ANY IDEAL WHAT MAY CAUSE THIS
Hey Flexx, I just bought a 2021 c300 coupe which comes with the 64 color led package. If I were to buy these, where would the connections be. In the video, it connects to the main wiring harness you installed earlier. Would I need that as well? How could I connect the leds with the system already integrated with the infotainment system?
same question, i got the 2021 aventegrade.
Both you guys will need to contact DMP and ask. They have kits for cars already with oem ambient lights. They will give you all the details. I don’t know what’s available for your cars. I only know the stuff for mine.
keep going
My c400 has some stock ambient lighting on the doors and centre console would these upgrades be brighter then the stock lights?
These go along with the stock ambient loghto
Where i have to plug the cable of the air vents if i dont have the main harness ?
Have you done an Cluster swap ?? Or will you be switching to an Digital Dash if possible ?
No and only if someone makes a plug and play version that’s affordable.
Do they do it for w204
I have a question, can you point these turbine vents to where you want the airflow to go, like you can the original ones? I don't mean open and close, but to turn them up down left or right.
Yes
Hey flexx , have you changed the pedals, or do they come standard like that
Stock
Is this the same process for a 2018 E400 Coupe…?
Hallo i buy the same lights but I don’t have OBD conector . Where i can connect the lights ? I don’t have any ambient light in my car. Please help
Cool
I want that done to my 2021 GLB.....I LIVE IN FLORIDA..WHERE CAN I GET IT DONE.....
will it work on my
2016 c450 amg
Hey after installing it, is there any issues After some time ??The mechanics are saying that they might to remap & reprogram after a couple days etc
it has nothing to do with the ECU and how the car control things...so I don't even know what your mechanic is talking about.
Hey Flexx, has any of your family or friends complement on your new interior look?
Of course. Lol
Hey, so I have a W205 2019. I got the Stock 64 Color Ambient Light Package. I really want these vents because they look sick. How do I connect these vents to the stock ambient wiring? Are there some "free" connectors or do i have to connect it somewhete between?
Thanks for this video and greetings from Germany
you need to ask DMP
I would like to now that too. I have 2019 c 205 with stock ambient light and i would like to have these vents too.
Does the colors of the vent change in sync with the other lights? I have stock ambient lights for a e300 will the colors be out of sync?
You need to ask DMP. I don’t know. My stuff is all hooked up to an aftermarket light source (go watch all videos in this ambient light video series). Mine is not to connected to an oem light system.
Nice video! Do you know where to find the powerline to connect everything in a c class without back airvents. Thanks very much!
Go watch episode 1
@@TheFlexxGarage yes i did thnks!
flexx, possible for you to provide link to hand hook tools used to remove driver side and passenger side vents ?

I rather pay to get this professionally done but still a cool video to watch
Professionals would do the same thing as him lol just charge you hundreds so its not worth it
@@LifeOfMohammedIf it saves you from a headache yes it is :P
Does anyone know if this will fit in a manual car?
Actually i have c300 2017 with black color base model speakers and i want to upgrade to something to high quality sound system
Has anyone done the button lights from yellow to white?
Great vids bro 👊🏽
Is there anything like that for the A4 ?
Yes, I'll being doing an ambient kit on the A4 real soon.
@@TheFlexxGarage awesome
Can the air vent be manually closed/blocked (redirecting air flow) to have no air flow while having the air con on?
Yez
Is the brightnes the same like the Original Ambiente light or is it more or less bright?
Don’t know. I never had the OEM ambient to compare it to.
