I ordered a center console with the switchrow filled out (except for the Distronic, I believe) for my silly project to swap out the switches on my coupe with a set that are more complete. Just hate the look of all of those blank switches.

Anyway, I ordered it from Potomac Salvage, and they f*cked up the processing of the order. To compensate me, they cut down a few plastic trees, and sent me a dizzying array of trim pieces.

None of which I need, since I've already got the Mystic Blue designo trim pieces.

Which means it's time to chuck them, or offer them up to anyone who could use them (all pre-facelift W203). I have three of the trim pieces that go around the radio and two of the pieces that go around the shifter in front of the armrest.

Prices go from free to $5,000, depending on your personal deuschbag factor. If you're interested, let me know, and I'll ship them out - need to get some of the parts out of my apt; it's embarrassing.

what color are the shifter trim peaces? mine is in bad shape

tommy

I think the actual color is "Rosewood", if memory serves. You know, the reddish-they-never-made-real-trees-like-this wood.

samaritrey

Ok if it matches this car i will take one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Merce...item19bf358826. Let me know

Thanks
Trey

tommy

I'll double-check over the weekend and let you know.

Any possible way you could post some pics just to see what exactly your talking about?

tommy

OK, I'll do that tomorrow, but it should be pretty self-explanatory.

Installation is extra.

edgarinho10

LOL. Well what if I'm located in Texas?

LPBenz19

I actually need the one that goes around the shifter if you still have it. And i'm in paramus for the install =)

edgarinho10

If you happen to have what LPBenz19 mentioned, can you take a picture and the part number?

Please & Thank You.

Ok, here's a pic; ignore the mess.

Trey, I believe it's the same color "wood" as in your link.



I believe that these are all from sedans. I forget if they are the same as for the coupe, or even if the coupes came with the option of wood trim (I hope not!).

Ill take one of the pieces that goes around the shifter if you still have one available

edgarinho10

That's very nice for someone that already has the interior or wants to add a little uniqueness to his or her car.

samaritrey

I will take one of the shifter peaces. How much do you want for shipping?

edgarinho10

$200. Paypal is accepted.

If any of the shifter pieces are still available, and with no damage, i'd like one to replace my cracked one. Will exchange for a genuine new MB coat hanger?

tommy

Geez, didn't know there were so many tightwads driving around with awful-looking interiors.

OK, here's the deal: one set is now spoken for, but the rest (meaning - two radio surround and one shift surround) will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis (you reimburse for UPS shipping, and no, I don't want to wrap them myself to save you a buck or two).

Radio Surround Piece
1) pcy
2) OPEN

Shifter Surround Piece

2) edgarinho10
3) LPBenz19

6) RumbleUK

Thought there would be much more demand for the stereo piece than the shifter piece. What are you people doing to those poor shift pieces??

So, Trey - let me know if you want the piece and PM me shipping info if you do. If you do not want it, it will fall to egdar, etc., etc...

And if anyone needs the radio surround, I'll hold on to it for a while longer before tossing it.

edgarinho10

I think you need a correction in the statement above. & not to sound like a dick or anything but you can skip me on this. My car isn't working yet and I think it would be more beneficial to someone else. Thanks though!

eesjunin

I'll take the shifter piece and re-imburse you for the wrapping and shipping. Please let me know the amount shipped to 01852...I will send the money ASAP.
Thanks!

edgarinho10

I'll take that luxury coat-hanger. How much for shipping to 75041?

samaritrey

Ok i will take it let me know how much you want and how you want to be paid. BTW my zip 22102.

tommy

Damn, reading sure is fundamental.

Since Trey has now said that he wants the shifter piece, it's done, and I have no more to give out. Trey, PM me your name and address, I'll ship it out on Wednesday (seeing ZZ Top in NYC tonight so won't be back home til tomorrow night), and then let you know how much it cost.

Someone also claimed the remaining radio surround, so I'm all out of plastic wood. Thank you for playing.

edgarinho10

Woaaah. Were not done. I still want that hanger!

tommy

Ok, parts were just shipped out for the winners.

Will PM with shipping costs and where to send reimbursement.

As far as the coat hanger, you're on your own.

edgarinho10

Well the guy hasn't responded!
