also, i already mentioned this on the phone with sunil, it's first come first serve. so get your payments in! if he cant get to yours then you will go home with the part(s) or stay the night :P

harry, what will you get done for sure? do you know?

like i said earlier we needed to have cap the limit. Now it looks like a bit out of control, but that's okay. I think we need to consult sunman regarding his availability first and then decide what to do. We might need people to go on different days to make the best out of it for everyone if it turns out one day is not enough. We do not want to exhaust sunman. Please people be considerate, i am only getting one thing installed and let's let everyone has opportunity ...and yes we do not want people who are not committed to take a spot out of someone who is willing to do so. We welcome those who are just watching but for the ones looking to get parts for their cars we need their commitments and be considerate for others.

well he is getting me a sweet deal on the CLK63 brakes so i'm getting those from him but i'm going to install those my self.

but i'm most likely going to get him to install the folding mirrors.
i have been talking to him for the last day or soo. and as soon as its all cleared up i will be sending him the money for the Brakes first and if i have any money left over then i will be getting the folding mirrors for sure.

excellent choice, he did my folding mirrors and while it was pricey, the little things do matter, i have a look of smug satisfaction every time i lock the car.

well in that case i will be out of town till May 8th so i hope he is coming after that date. because if he coming before then i wont be able to meet him.
Do we know if we are going up on a sat or a sunday? I would prefer it to be a Sunday but then again it all varies around Sunil. "14 Cue" do we know when he is coming down? i keep forgetting to ask him when i e-mail him.

SUNMAN IS THE MAN. I met him in Detroit when he programed the chirp and the fuel quantity display on my car. That guy knows Mercedes. If u love your cars than you want him to work on them.

I am still working with Sunil via PM for my coding and possible tilt sensor mod. Do we have any idea how scheduling his time looks yet? As far as, needing a second day or just taking people in order that he can get to?

Guys, just to give you an idea of install times, cosmetic stuff, mirrors, comands, don't take very long to install. STationary Heaters, Parktronic, Seat heaters do take a long time to install. I will be there for a couple of days visiting my sister so it's really no problem as far as time for me. I am sure Russell Stevens will be driving up also depending on his schedule. You all can check his car out too.

GET YOUR ORDERS IN!!!

DATE SET: SATURDAY MAY 19th 2007

if you are serious about this you need to get your orders in so your part(s) will be ready in Seattle for the install day which isnt that far from now.

my attendance is still pending on whether sunman can get me the parts i need or if i need programming (i wont know till i get my car back in 2 weeks).
