Steve was here!
Hi everyone,
I own a '05 C200K euro sportcoupe and just this weekend Steve visited me in Greece and performed some of his neat tricks on my car! It was a pleasure watching him installing parktronic, UHI phone, linguatronic, cd changer plus a few other mods (fire extinguisher, remote for comand, exit lights on front doors, enable a few extra menus like fuel volume, auto folding mirrors when car is locked, etc). In fact, he did so many things I may be forgetting some.
As for the experience, I've been reading so much about this guy and I only have to tell you one thing: everything and more is true! Steve, apart from being an *expert* on MB mods, is a really great guy!
I've attached several pictures during and after the installation. I really can't wait until the next round of mods! Thank you Steve and I hope I see you again soon!
Greetings to all,
Fotis

Fotis,
Congratulations on some great OEM mods.
I only trust Steve to do that kind of work on my Coupe, and he has never let me down in expertise, quality, friendliness, and great prices.
I would love to visit Greece some day... still on my things-to-do-list !
Have fun enjoying your Coupe !

Fotis, the pleasure was all ours. As always. It is always good to 'hear' that our customers are enjoying their new goodies. 
And I am sure Steve would love to come back again to help you get some more things installed in your C-coupe.
The hospitality was awesome! Thank you.

I don't suppose you will bring along your car so Steve can mod it for you.

Greece and Spain are the 2 places I have yet to go to in Europe and intend on going at some point in my life. Can't wait until my modding is done, so I can finally travel back to Europe.

Showing him around is no problem. Forget about the chicks, though. My brother is married, and too fond of his wife to cheat on her.
Drex, I am sure that there are a lot of beautiful places in Greece to go to. Fotis took Steve on a sightseeing tour last Sunday. After work, I HOPE. I believe Steve enjoyed it a lot.

Steve was actually quite lucky since this weekend the temperature in Athens will be slightly over 42C/108F (no typo). I really do need vented seats after all. What was I thinking when I asked him about the stationary heater mod? 
You are all welcome to visit Greece, I even offer a complimentary tour including Acropolis, ancient greek and roman markets, etc , although I have to work on my tour guide technique: I almost had a heart attack while trying to a) talk to Steve, b) walk on a very steep path (leading all the way up to Parthenon) and c) breathe, all at the same time!

let me know when he's going to do IMS for you guys. I can help out a little bit, having seen it done twice.
Thomas, front SAM huh ??? about how much $ is that ?
Thinking of doing same on my Coupe to let Steve loose on some more STARDIAG programming options that my current 2003 SAM is clueless about.
Next on my list of MBenzNL installs include:
- Linguatronic
- Distronic
- CLK AMG heated/vented/countour seats
- TV tuner
- more StarDiag programmable features

Guys, wishlists have to be mailed! You all know that, or did you - conveniently - forget.
Fotis, it sounds as if Steve's visit wasn't as easy for you as it was for him. Good for you to survive your own sightseeing tour, although I do think it would be best to stop walking when talking when Steve's in Athens again. This way the breathing won't give you any troubles, either.
