WOW !! Is that all ? or you still getting more ?? I think your car got the most options here !! Good job !

SuperQ

is it possible to add the heated and air conditioned seats? Also is it possible to add memory drivers seat, mirrors and steering column?

Code 673 Battery with increased capacity <--- interested with that, what do you have to add??

mleskovar

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.

Another thread to make us all feel inferior, sunman... Any chance you'll put up the $$$ figures on how much it ran to do all those ...LOL...j/k.

nlpamg

sunman, in

SuperQ

Code 524 Paintwork Preservation
Code 929 Ethanol Fuel

SUNILP

Telestart is the remote control for the heating system.

SUNILP

I think all USA mercedes have the battery with increased capacity.

SUNILP

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.

JOESID

Can you explain the 929 Ethanol fuel?

gahhh your car makes me drool.

amdeutsch

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.

MJ50

oh sunman....
u should put thumbnails next to each code for better visualization....

benzmodz

You left out the code for

AMG rims
AMG body modification
Lowered suspension (sports package)

SUNILP

and auxillary locking also

W0n6_3d4n

Does the ethanol option enable you to put E15 (code??) (15% ethanol and 85% petrol)?? Interesting....

amdeutsch

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

GMW

Great Job!! Distronic as well!!!

I just retro-fitted the Harman Kardon sound system and wanted to know where its microphone sits?

CAB

Great car! But how did you get the new DVD-Comand going in your prefacelift W203? I thougt it was not possible to change the CD based into the new DVD-based. Would be interesting to know how you managed this. But technically i am not versed.

benzmodz

Inside the rear view mirror or OCP .... depends on the design.

benzmodz

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

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.

SUNILP

it is possible if you are ready to spend th extra moola. There are lots of modules that needs to be changed out. Search the forum and I posted some pics earlier.
