Search of this forum will definitely answer 1st 2 questions. Ashtray is MB parts dealer (may want to stop for personal lubricant on the way there). Aftermarket is not cheap either.

i used this with my c63 and black series for bluetooth streaming. worked perfectly in glovebox since aux input is there but you need to power it from the cig lighter and usb cable.

Just out of curiosity, how much is the stealership asking for a new CF ashtray lid? I recently had mine re-done by a shop in town and it looks perfect and brand new.

For the ashtray lid I am showing a current MSRP of $402.00 . We have the part available to order on our site, if you are interested, for $321.07*.

@badbenzz - Yeah saw the ashtray on MAcarbon but was hoping someone had a hack for it? Is there any point buying a new one for it to just break again? MBenzNL in Europe has them at 275 euro's.

@AMG BRED - What shop and how much did it cost? How did they do it exactly?

According to Steve from MBenzNL all i need to do for Bluetooth is get a mercedes UHI kit with BT cradle? Anybody have any experience with this?

Any links for spacer kits (bolts included?). Has anybody taking a chance with the ones on ebay?

Call Otis Inc LA. They just mailed me my spacers (arrived today) per specs on the thread above. They will square you away.

@Shellx - How much did you pay for front and back spacers plus the lug nuts?

Has anybody tried these viseeo units for bluetooth?

They ran about $250 total. Best to call them directly, and since they just did them for my car, he will have all the specs ready. They are very nice spacers; definitely worth the money.

Also if you want music/audio only, and have the iPod connector in your glovebox, the viseeo wma1000 works fantastic. You can find it on Amazon for under $100.
