I'm pretty sure I know what that is. I have that too and need to install also. Just need the harness and wires. MJ, you have part numbers, right? I have them in case you need them.

i know the feeling....

you could say that my rear Euro-bezel project has been a 3-year (on and off rollercoaster). It's a super difficult part to find, and installing it requires major body-shop work, even though it is 100% OEM. The only MB Tech I trusted to do that job moved out of state, so even though a Mercedes-Benz Collision Center should be able to do the job, there's just something I don't trust about them. Installing that panel on the rear Coupe hatch requires uninstalling the riveted piece, and swapping it with this Euro version.

who knows when I'll get that done. and then there's that little detail about a C32 engine... but I won't go into that....

Don't think it'll work for Drex - if I remember correctly 2004.5+ may use different bracketry... X_X. I can't install IMS, but this mod I've done before.
