Are there any videos on the installation instructions for the facelift tail lights?

[@TimothyArmstrongamblixVR]

I'm looking at doing some of these mods to my 2012 W166, I would GREATLY appreciate if you had some pictures on your website showing BEFORE and AFTER. Seeing the thumbnails on your site, or photos of the parts themselves doesn't really help much. Also, do you have any clients who've done complete audio systems including custom dual subwoofer and amps in the back? I can't believe I'm not finding photos of customer ML350 systems. We have so much space, I assumed I would find many, but I can't find a single one :( Keep up the awesome work!

[@Niles-Guy]

Great video. You clearly have talent and I’m impressed. The only thing you needed to do when you installed your rims was to put in red brake calipers to enhance the looks. 👍🏻

[@CKMCardesign]

Niles Guy Red? Realy? Bigger would have been nice though!

[@Niles-Guy]

CKMCardesign yes bigger AMG red calipers or Brembo . So may I ask how much did your conversion cost you because I also have a 2013 W166 ? Thanks

[@CKMCardesign]

Niles Guy Very hard to answer that! And its much left to do in upcomming videos! You have most parts on my site!

Hi. I have converted ml to gle. For headlights to work we had to replace SAM module from ml to GLE original module. After programming, LED headlights are working. But when i switch on high beam, the motor inside LHS headlight makes some movement, lo it looks like flickering high beam. Any suggestions?

Hey. Great work CKM. And don’t listen to the haters! GLE 350 is a great suv and AMG exterior package is awesome.. just throw on some 22” rims; grill and bumper upgrades and it’s perfect. Anyways, where did you purchase the AMG 63S front and rear bumpers? Do they come painted for color match or did you have to get it painted separately? Also is it just easier to purchase the AMG 63S front bumper and the GTR grill together and then put it in together? I’m thinking of upgrading my 2016 gle350 bumpers, grill and rims. Thanks buddy and once again great job. you make it look so easy LOL

So this is another ML to GLE, but do the kits work on a GLE43 and turn them into a GLE63. I ask again because I've seen all of your videos and you do not directly answer this question.
