MBenzNL august trip – now with some specials

The next MBenzNL US installation trip is scheduled for August. This trip will go to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and Vancouver – other destinations might be possible but for now we stick to these 4 westcoast areas.

This time we offer a couple of modifications at a special discount price – these specials are ONLY valid for the upcoming US trip and ONLY when deposits are received before august 06 AND valid for those who order a self install kit before that same august 06.
We will (off course) pass on these specials to those who already paid their deposit for the upcoming US trip.

For the W203 we offer the following specials:
- refurbished eurospec D2B comand (for the 203s up to 2005): 1450USD incl 3 months warranty (normally 1600USD)
- new 2003 US spec D2B comand (for the 203s up to 2005): 1850USD incl 12 month warranty (normally 2000USD)
- new 2004 US spec D2B SAT-compatible comand (for the 203s up to 2005): 2000USD incl. 12 months warranty (normally 2200USD)
- new updated grills for the 203 coupe: 75USD (normally 110USD – and excl. installation)

Furthermore we still offer the usual modifications (mail us for pricing):
- new power folding sidemirrors with headlight switch for 203s with or without a memory driverside seat…the 2005 and up 203s will have the ability to autofold the mirrors when locking the car
- euro anti blind spot (convex) mirror glasses with auto diming driverside feature
- full parktronic front and rear
- new MOST based CD changer for the 2005s and up
- refurbished or new D2B based CD changers for the 203s up to 2005
- euro bumperstrips (without the US specific sidemarkers)
- updated (clear halogen) headlights, updated (coupe) taillights, updated mirror blinkers, updated coupe grill
- bi xenon headlights
- UHI and/or MHI (integrated) phonekits
- Ipod kits (for the 2005s and up)
- eurospec MOST based DVD comand (for the 2005s and up)
- updated armrests
- cruise control switch with limiter feature (as currently discussed in the 203 section)
…and whatever else that was offered by Mercedes as optional equipment…

Most of the people here are probably familiar with us and the way we work…for those who aren’t, please do a search on MBenzNL to read up on experiences that people had with us in the past.
Feel free to email us with whatever question you have or with possible orders: info@MBenzNL.com

I too give Steve and the MBenzNL crew the highest rating. I am sure that I could do some of the stuff Steve does, but it is always fun to watch him work. I think that I can get the C-class dash apart with my eyes closed now.

the headlight switch is removed by pulling the brake release handle and unssrewing the torx hidden under the brake release. pull the panel off the fuse box and push the clips in and the switch pull right out.

for the mirrors, push them towards the rear of the car, use a torx to remove the screws, three on each frame. if you have an 05, youll more than likely have to remove the door panels in order to unplug the wiring harness and plus the new one in. i dont have any WIS for door panel removal.

Now, if I could just order some parts by the same price of US costumers ! the 05' coupe grill for only 75$, just 62€ (at dealer 128€ with 20% discount)

Don't forget we have to add Dutch VAT, and shipping costs... but anyways, we can get this to work for you as well. As long as you order / pay before August 6...

mbenznl, just wondering, with the "new 2004 US spec D2B SAT-compatible comand" will the navagation works w/o tele-aid? from the mbenz dealer says. a car must have tele-aid for the navagation to be install. my car doesnt not have teleaid, so i would need to install tele-aid first?
thanks

Sure, why wouldn't it? I guess the dealer wants to use some sort of splitter when installing a comand unit. The splitter can be connected to the Teleaid antenna... But we use (original MB) under dash GPS antennas, and they work great as well.

No need to get Teleaid...

I know, Carlos. I also sent you a reply, quite some hours ago. Didn't you receive it?

Anyways, it's been noted down on our list - so don't worry.

oh, i better check my e-mail.
My internet surfing is on a separate computer from my e-mail. I've got 3 monitors on my work desk with 3 separate levels of internet, so it's hard to keep up with everything. and oh yeah, i gotta do some work too !!

how else can i pay for all of Steve's toys ?!?!?

Thanks as always.....
