You are definitely the king of options....and what it takes to install them. Is the 'increased battery capacity' more than 100ah? I can't figure out why 100ah is needed and if I'll replace it with 100ah or a gel/spiral wound 70ah. I don't know enough about it to understand any problems it may cause in the charging or electrical/electronic systems. I don't think it will, but don't know for sure. All the ah give you is battery life and nothing in the car measures or looks for that, that I'm aware of. I could see how your 229 would use power at rest though.

I honestly don't know what paint work preservation is. The ethanol fuel option is so I can use ethanol fuel which is available in some parts of the country.

The C320 of that MY is a flex fuel vehicle. It can run E85, premium or a mixture of both. There are several threads/posts on E85 on this forum if you want to know more.

Can't speak about E15 but E10 is save to run in most newer engines. E85 requires the option code.

Basic parts
----------
Head unit
Air conditioning controller and its wood / metal trim
Switch row above head unit and its trim
CD stacker
Instrument cluster

Frame behind head unit

Stuff you dont see
-------------------
Front fuse box
Rear fuse box
complete wiring harness for COMAND, Phone, Teleaid, Voice control, CD, Sound system
Antenna module

Phone module
Teleaid module
Voice module
Sound amp

Overhead control panel
Central gateway

Give or take a few parts.

You pretty much have to strip down the entire interior and then pretend you are a low paid migrant worker in Germany making cars. Its an "all-in" thing to do this.
