Has anyone installed the Ambient Light kit from Dmp Car Designs? The W205 Coupe/Cabriolet variant featuring the Canbus interface and door connections. I have obtained my kit, but it included only a single door controller module. Is this correct? It additionally included four footwell illuminations and four door embellishments. Do you have any insights, or has anyone installed this iteration of their equipment? I have contacted DMP, but I doubt they comprehend my inquiry.

I apologise for my inability to respond to your enquiries, but I too am keen on enhancing the ambient illumination within my vehicle. I will monitor your thread to observe your progress. Wishing you the utmost success.

Greetings, I trust you are doing well. I would appreciate your guidance on how you accomplished this, as I possess the same model and year, yet I am unable to determine the appropriate location for the canbus.

Apologies for the tardiness in delivering feedback. The kit has been set up and functions exceptionally well. The initial task I undertook was the doors. Directly in accordance with the YouTube videos. I lacked the clips as specified. The compartment for the light tube was secured with screws. I threaded the cables with male and female connectors through the door/body plugs and directed them to the passenger side (UK), alongside the center console lights, to the internal fuse box located in the passenger footwell. This is the location where I installed the control unit. There are sufficient connectors to attach all devices. The Canbus connection module is situated beneath the carpet. It is an elongated, slender block featuring several dual-pin sockets. It is unmistakable due to the numerous brown wires connected to it. The only remaining task was to connect the dongle to the ODB2 port and refresh the software. Functions exceptionally well. Notify me if you encounter difficulties

What alternatives did you select?
I harbour some doubts regarding the door, particularly if it includes the clips.

I opted for the conventional kit. Provides 64 hues of ambient illumination in the doors, footwell, and center console. I might address the vents eventually.
