As far as I know, the only way to find changes based on regional difference, is to compare to the default data for a vehicle from that region. In E-Sys you can do this by editing your FA to (optionally) make it a European model number, and removing 8S4 and 5AP from the SALAPA-Element list. Once you've got the modified FA, you can create a set of default NCD files for the modules in the vehicle, and then compare these to the US defaults with 8S4 and 5AP.

This approach with E-Sys is the one that I took and I got a completely different set of differences. The first difference was CA_AFS_ENA, but the other two that you list were defaulted to disabled just like the US M2 defaults.

There was also a lot of differences in the FLE modules, which is something that has been identified as being required for other models.

I consulted Almaretto about the changes I'd found, and he suggested a few to try. I did this and made a video of my experience. Basically the headlights moved around a lot, but didn't form a tunnel when needed; it was a bit disappointing, because seeing the high-beams dip independently and move around like that is truly impressive.

I'm going to try coding the two additional changes you mentioned just in case, but I don't have high hopes.
