Coupe Door Pins

Does anyone know where I can get door pins for the C coupe? I'm not looking for Brabus, Carlsson, Lorinser, etc., I just want some generic push-ons for the coupe in silver/brushed aluminum/chrome...I know that formymercedes has them for the sedan, but I'm not sure if those fit on the coupe

any help would be appreciated, thanks!

They come in sets of 4, but the COUPE only has 2 doors. So, going back to my 1st grade math book (because I forget things with old age), there are 2 extras if you order them from ForMyMercedes.com

I would be willing to split the cost with someone (incl shipping/tax) if someone orders a set for their Coupe. Or I can order a set, and split with someone if interested. Let me know. How long is the back-order wait time for these things from ForMyMercedes.com?

man, you're DA MAN !!!

I'll order a set tonight. nlpamg, says there's a bit of a back-order wait. I'll e-mail Jerry
right now as well, to see if he's got an answer as to why the long back-order time ?

it seems ForMyMercedes.com has been back-ordering customers on different products quite a bit lately. Don't know if that's standard, or just a delay in their distribution set-up.

I just checked with Jerry, the manufacturer of the pins told him that they were shipped on Sept. 20 from Germany, and they still haven't come in... Hopefully they'll be in soon.

Thumbs up

got word from Jerry too... pins should be arriving any day now.
Delay is beyond his control. But stuff is en-route from Germany via Luftpost.
------------------------------------
Now someone with a COUPE has to pair up with wfb1746 to order another set and split the 4 pins.

theres gotta be someone out there wanting pics, willing to go halves with wfb1746.

hey wfb1746, how about buying them and then sell then put them for sale here to get half the money back. im sure once you have them youll be able to find someone.

They're back in stock already for anyone wondering/waiting. I just ordered mine and hopefully they'll be here by Weds/Thurs. When they come in, I'll take some pics...
