How do I activate IIS functionality after installing WiX-Bundle?

Question

How do I activate IIS functionality after installing WiX-Bundle?

I created a WiX-Bootstrapper package with some preconditions, for example with IIS Express 8.0. On a virtual machine, the IIS installation goes well. In the next step, I want to activate some IIS functionality. So I tried the following lines in Product.wxs of the MSI project:

<Product>
    [...]
    <Property Id="INSTALLIISPROP"
              Value="C:\Windows\System32\dism.exe"></Property>
    <CustomAction Id="InstallIISCA"
                  Return="check"
                  Property="INSTALLIISPROP"
                  Execute="deferred"
                  HideTarget="yes"
                  Impersonate="yes"
                  ExeCommand="/Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:IIS-WebServerRole /FeatureName:IIS-WebServer /FeatureName:IIS-CommonHttpFeatures /FeatureName:IIS-StaticContent /FeatureName:IIS-DefaultDocument /FeatureName:IIS-RequestFiltering /FeatureName:IIS-IPSecurity [...]></CustomAction>
    <InstallExecuteSequence>
        <Custom Action="InstallIISCA"
                Before="InstallFinalize">
            <![CDATA[NOT Installed AND IISMAJORVERSION]]>
        </Custom>
    </InstallExecuteSequence>
</Product>

But that doesn't do anything. None of the IIS features are enabled. What I did wrong?

Finally, here is the WXS file for installing IIS:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"
     xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension">

                             Value="Install"
                             Variable="IisExpressX64"

                             Variable="IisExpressX86"/>

        <PackageGroup Id="IisExpress_8_0">
            <MsiPackage Id="IisExpress8_0_X64"
                        Cache="yes"
                        Compressed="yes"
                        Permanent="yes"
                        Vital="yes"
                        SuppressSignatureVerification="yes"
                        SourceFile=".\Prerequisites\iis\iisexpress_8_0_RTM_x64_de-DE.msi"
                        InstallCondition="NOT IisExpressX86 AND VersionNT64"/>

            <MsiPackage Id="IisExpress8_0_X86"
                        Cache="yes"
                        Compressed="yes"
                        Permanent="yes"
                        Vital="yes"
                        SuppressSignatureVerification="yes"
                        SourceFile=".\Prerequisites\iis\iisexpress_8_0_RTM_x86_de-DE.msi"
                        InstallCondition="NOT IisExpressX86 AND NOT VersionNT64"/>
        </PackageGroup>
    </Fragment>
</Wix>

And this is stated in Bundle.wxs:

<PackageGroupRef Id='IisExpress_8_0'/>

To fix this problem, you need a second WXS file containing ExePackages, which will enable the IIS functionality. Then you need to implement another PackageGroupRef in the Bundle.

Here's a WXS with IIS features:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
