(The first pic is funny because of the lighting outside. I'll post better pics when I get the other strips on)
Hot shade of blue you got there, car looks hot.

Hey Eric, it's good to know that you have your PTS installed - looks as if it worked out OK with calling my brother.

Nice pics, and I love your car's color!

Hard to park ? no, not at all. But now I can do it blindfolded !!!

Parktronic might have come in handy in any of your multiple vehicle accidents.

But, I guess with brain damage, you're probably used to the flashing lights and beeping sounds already. No need to elaborate.

...just posting a partnumber is rather useless as:
- there are 3 different versions available depending on modelyear
- there are several different colors available (and thus colorcodes)
- you might also need the regulator below depending on the modelyear you have...

the grill itself: 19.94 euro
the regulator underneath the grill: 15.33 euro
shipping: 22 euro

There was also a cheaper retrofit kit for the rear only. Do you know if anyone has made a DIY about it?

I love the rear light with reading lights and parktronic display.

In my coupe I only have a Big light.

Best Regards.

Ruben.

P.S. I you like you ///AMG badge, Keep It !!!!

He just parks his Mazda by feel. When he feels his piece of **** hit the other pieces of **** parked on the street with his piece of ****, he knows its time to put the ***** in park(no way this queer could handle a manual- a stick he's probably good with, but not at shifting) and get out of his piece of ****.

Here is the Carlos one:


I have stock heated seats and they have 2 levels. The carlos one has 2 levels of heat and 2 levels of vent because it's from a CLK. I don't know if I put this on my coupe the heated seats stop working; or they will continuing work.

MJ50 ones are full switch row from a sedan and I think I should have no problems; but if anyone can tell me that the CLK ones will work with my heated seats, I will put those.

Maybe Sunman or Steve knows it.

Best Regards.

That is not the full switch row. It is missing the "internal motion sensor" below the "tow sensor alarm" which both Sunman and I have in our cars.

Switch possible combinations
---------------------------------
- with heated seats . plus with vented seats (both sides)
- with parktronic
- with rear blind (not valid for coupe)
- with ESP switch (stock)
- with rear headrest release (sedan) (not valid for coupe)
- with rear window wiper (wagon) (not valid for coupe)
- with alarm + plus internal motion sensor

Then there are the 2005 versions.

No guessing why there are about 15 pages of part numbers.

The question is:

If I put the CLK ones with heated and vented seats; will the heated seats continue working on my coupe?


Best Regards.

Ruben.

Heated/Vented (Will only heat ant the 2 levels?)
Parktronic (will do nothing since I don't have parktronic)
SunBind (will do nothing since its a coupe)
ESP (OK)

Door Lock (OK)
Headrest (will do nothing since its a coupe)
TOW/IMS (OK)
Heated/Vented (Will only heat ant the 2 levels?)

This is the one that I will like to have if heated seats continue working.

It's the one that Saprissa have.


Part # for that is A 209 820 48 10
