COMAND installs in Texas (Cali soon too)

If anyone's interested in a COMAND installation in Texas, there will be installs from the August 21st-25th in Austin and Houston. Please mail Wanda at steve@mbenznl.com to coordinate, if you're interested. Schedule will be finalized Wednesday so please make any deposits before then.

If you're in California, Steve's trip there is late September and early October, so please plan ahead for that too! He needs more time to get things shipped for California, so try and get your requests/deposits in early.

Thanks!

Doug, you gotta come out for this one... I've already confirmed with Steve for him to install my EURO COMAND and hopefully I can get Bi-Xenons by then too ! Would be great to have everyone do their installs at a central location.
And have anyone else come up and have another mini-meet.

greetingz,
Steve, any luck on Bi-Xenons for the COUPE ?

I don't think I'll ever get to that point of dropping that much $ for a supercharger.

I'll definitely buy a true AMG before I get that far. I'll add a few HP mods on the COUPE but only to push it a little farther. It's my daily driver, and I'm not going to track it, but it's nice to know it's got a little more under the hood than the average C320.

digital climate control for an '05 would be cool...
if that could be put in, how much would it cost?
if it's not too much, I'd be down...

greetingz,
Please let me know about the comand if you decide to offer it. It's actually for my sister's car and she desperately needs it. If you do decide to offer it, how much would something like that go for (installation and all)?

Thanks,
Brian.
