Under driver's seat
Does anybody know what the black plastic thingy under the driver's seat is? I don't know how else to describe it. And, yes, I searched the forums first.
Thanks in advance.

Yep it is the rear seat heat vent. Works in conjunction with the front floor vents on most cars, not sure on the MB because they have the auto vent selelcting that trys to balance the temp in the car by selecting diferent vents based on the position of the car to the sun via the hood sensor. Also since I have never taken apart the heater box on the W203 but on the W201 it works with the front floor vents selected.
