It's a pretty big deal; and coding is certainly involved.

There's also the matter of the leveling system attached to the vehicle's suspension.

Why not check in the Lighting Forum and see if Daniel, the mod, can be of any assistance.

RE: Xenon lights

In Europe self leveling is required when zenon lights are fitted.  These cars also have headlight washing.

Not certain these are legal requirements in USA and pretty sure you can install the zenons without them. 

Of course, if your ML has airmatic, you already have self leveling.
