This is the startup screen of my phone (t-mobile service). I have actually hacked the phone to show Mercedes-Benz in my own graphics (pics can be found around) but it wont show for some reason (it was pic not font). You can also see the signal strength (S1) and goes up to S9. Anything from S2-S3 should get you clear signal when talking.

Here's some pics of C7 pedals and SL e-brake pedals, there's also the MB all-weather rubber mat (its dirty but thats a good thing since my carpet isnt). I'm gonna get the 2004.5 C7 e-brake pedal eventually (soon).

last is pic of the coupe. She's got over 15k miles now and over a year old. Just driving home tonite some a$$ from an apt complex either threw a rock or sling-shot something at my coupe while i'm driving at about 40mph (the neighborhood i was driving through wasnt that great). I was sooo shock and mad that someone will do that randomly! Luckily my new windshield (replaced about 6 months ago) took the hit VERY well.

digital climate
i just purchased a digital AC unit (203 830 09 85) for my '02 C230 but it didn't fully function. I guess yours works fine. What is the model # for your digital AC? You do anything diffent than a direct swap in?

I've seen some cars have the stations tag in the in dash display? Do you have that? Like 105.9 The Buzz shows up, for example.
But really well done on the coupe

thanks guys, I got the grill from Tommy and looking into either getting the whole grill chormed or body color black (except the star). I'm pretty sure i'm gonna get the C32 brake kit once the pads wear out. If i decide to keep the car until end of lease I want bi-xenons too
