No leaks at all the fluid in resivar. The build is at the same level I marked it
It has never moved I drove 120 miles level never moved at all so on leaks
So I don't know I think it mau be the master cylinder. Is hat I'm thinking or the main pump
I've. Used my pressure bleeder. With 5 bottles of mb brake fluid I bleed one full bottle out. Of each wheel
So I don't know

I'd say body-colored door handles and smoked or clear or body-colored corners, then a front lip and Renntech rear spoiler.

Then headers, chipping, interior, ice, throttle body, plugs, and you should be close to done.

Hey Link Mustang where did you get your Clear headlights?

did they fit without modifications? or did you get the ones that fit the 2005 and modified the mounting or what?

my email is drh64@live.com. any help would be appreciated if someone has any info where i can get them.

non-xenon, clear headlights only for 2002 W203, C class c230 kompressor, 2 door/hatchback.

thanks!

thanks LinkMustang.

so how was it to install them in your car? any modifications at all? or did you just switch out like 1, 2, 3 ??

i have a chance to buy the 2005 headlights but not sure about the fit. your feedback greatly appreciated.

XsuperbeeX. sorry if i am ignorant but what previous post are you referring to please?

fyi...i am new to this whole forum/blog thing so forgive me. not exactly sure how to maneuver around on this yet.

anyways...if you know whether or not the 2005 clear headlights will fit my 2002 coupe it would be greatly appreciated as i need to make a decision by friday if i am purchasing a pair or not.

much appreciated.

regards!

thanks a lot Link.

i guess it is safe for me to spend the $ then on the 2005 headlights for my 2002 coupe.
sounds like it has worked for you and a few others as well.

i see that your car is a 2003, but even so...the 2003 is like the 2002 in almost every way right?

Hi Link!

you are really being a great help...really do appreciate this.

one last question...you mentinoed your door handles...

i was wanting to get mine painted to match the car. do you think they will look like the coupes that come with their handles painted already when purchased or do you think because they are the plain black plastic that you will be able to tell that they were painted?

of course i plan on having a body shop do the painting for me...got to have the front bumper painted on the bottom anyways.

OR...do you think i should buy new handles from mercedes already in the same color of my car? that will be costly i am sure.

thanks

Hey Link. so your door handles.....who painted them? a regular body shop or Mercedes? do they look like factory on the new ones or is it a decent job (several layers of paint and clear coat I assume?).

post pics if you can. thanks. ;o)
