MBenzNL mods to my car installed by Steve yesterday!
Well it all went down yesterday when Steve made it out to Toronto. My car got the following goodies:
- Euro COMAND. This is awesome and the British voice rocks
- iPod integration
- Fuel remaining in litres
- Turned off seatbelt warning beep and replaced it with the dash warning
This was my first experience in dealing with MBenzNL and let me say that it was very positive. Both Steve and Wanda were a pleasure to deal with and the parts and service were first rate. I know that there are a lot of people out there trying to get better deals but with MBenzNL you get great service at a fair market price. Keep up the great work!

Sorry, but 
without pics.
Majority of the people on here will agree (me being one of them) that Steve is "The Man" and he and Wanda do a great job with service selling parts through MBenzNL, but without pics, these are all mods that have been done before.
Don't mean to flame you because these are great additions you did to your car! Believe me, people get on my back for not having a digital camera (which is why I try not to start a thread like this unless someone has taken pics for me or I can borrow someone's camera to take pics and post).
Regardless, congrats on the additions to your w203!

Congrats on your new retro-fits. I wouldn't necessarily call them mods, because their all OEM MB parts/codes. But nevertheless cool OEM MB parts/codes !
Enjoy !

In Europe the C180 Kompressor have only 143bhp!!!!
Why do you guys change it to c180? only for the 1.8L?
I only realised now that we still have the c180k, c200k and the new c230 v6

Hmm, must be kind of frustrating knowing that you have to wait, but I guess the PTS upgrade put quite a hole in your wallet... 
No sweat, though: whenever you are ready, we will gladly install the comand unit in your car. :p
