Steve,
Those mods are on my list for months. They are nice !!
I was told that the auto-folding and the passive tyre pressure monitor feature required a new front SAM. It seems you already had them before replace the new SAM.
Please let us know the new SAM part number you are going to install. Follow my search the latest version is A203 545 42 01. I also would like to know what are new tricks come with it.
Did you order it from Sunman ? If so then I will order it from him

The auto folding mirrors are cool, I'd like to eventually get that - the Distronic, would that work with a stick shift?? 
And the heating (and I think cooling(?) system) is also pretty cool, but not on my current list.
Wow, there's so much to do.... I thought after the AMG exterior upgrades I was done.

The passive tire pressure system worked on my 2004 with my old SAM 209 545 11 01 version HW 4802 SW 4802. We switched to the newest version and picked up the folding mirrors when the the car is locked. And it will aid in future software upgrades. The Distronic will work with the stick I'm sure. I sent the headrests off with Sunman to have the monitors installed, and he programed video in motion. He fixed a glitch in the headlight leveling system we added, and played with another costomers car. In two weeks we will be installing the monitors and I hope to get a remote for my command, and what ever I can think of between now and then.
