Finding Labrador Blue Pearl Granite Trim for the 600

I'm not sure how much this topic has come up, or how much research has been done, but I've been really wanting to change out the wood trim in my SL 600 to the very rare Labrador Blue Pearl Granite trim. This trim has been incredibly difficult for me to find, and whenever I do find it, I feel like I'm putting a down payment on a house to get it.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions on where I could find a set? Hell, even a used set would be fine. I'd rather not resort to wrapping my trim, but if so I will. It'd just be nice to find the legitimate trim is all.

The Granite trim was never sold in the US so this will be a rare find. Also very pricey if I recall.

Best choices will be Mercedes parts stores in Germany or similar... It's the Designo W72 trim

Model Year Location Trim Part Number
All Left Door A230 720 17 22 5D83
All Right Door A230 720 18 22 5D83
MY02-04 Centre console A230 680 66 39 5D83
MY05 onward Centre console A230 680 09 36 5D83 also
A230 680 14 36 5D83

Good luck!
