US import - what work needs doing?

[AMG Merc]

Hi, I'm looking at importing a 355 from the US. What work would need doing for UK use? Is it just the lights (front and rear or just fronts)? If so, is it replacement or modification? And thoughts on cost? Thanks.

As per the other thread unless it's your car or very very cheap it does not make economical sense.

Thanks but let's assume I'm doing it anyway - humour me!

Install E mark all glass all lenses tyres & seat belts if not already

Add fog light

The good news is the headlamps can be adjusted l/r and the speedo is already mph

Happy to be corrected and/or see list extended

On a 355 I'd need to change the glass, seatbelts, add a foglight? Surely not. I though reset the headlights for UK use and change the rear lens to amber from red. Job done, no?
