So saw this recently on a FB post. Anyone ever looked into coding this function.

Being in UK in RHD woudl be great to be able to switch to LHD setup on headlights if this is what this option does.

Any ideas on the coding side of things

I'd have thought you would have had that function natively. I believe it's referred to as "tourist mode".

It probably matters a great deal what year your car is, what your HU ECU is, etc.

Car is 2014 build with Pro Nav (NBT) , adaptive Xenons. I never thought it was possible and in UK not offered but someone on Facebook group found the screen. So makes me wonder if its an option thats potentially codable.

Annoying BMW dont offer it as Mercs in UK with adaptive have the options when crossing the channel to Europe and LHD side of thigns you simply press a button on the settings screen.

I'm fairly certain it's an LED function, but other may weigh in.

There is a recent (2017) long thread on this :

Thanks any idea if this would be LED adaptive or work on Xenons as other posts claim Xeons cant do it

You could always try coding it and see. If it doesn't work with Xenons, it won't make anything explode; it just won't work.

If Almaretto posted the coding, there's a good chance it'll work.
