Hi guys,

Apologies if this has already been asked on the forum. I recently had my near-side headlight damaged in an accident and decided to get it fixed myself at a local body shop - I managed to find a replacement headlight which had the same code as the one recommended by the Mercedes dealership for my car - W205 C220d 2016 with adaptive headlights - part number A2059068102. The replacement was used but in good condition with only 2 scratches and no cracks with all modules included. I did suspect that it will require coding for the full adaptive/LED functioning to return and this was sadly the case as only the full/dipped beam is working and the bodyshop guy advised that it needs to be coded.

I saw a few youtube videos in which they recode a headlight however they all scan a QR code on the headlight which is missing on mine - who would remove this?! Can anyone help if they have the same headlight part number and a sticker which looks like this:

I am taking it to my local Mercedes specialist but I'm not sure he will be able to help if this sticker is not there.

Thanks in advance
