AMG Door Pins-$50
Just bought these this morning. I was looking for some on here, but they sold pretty quick, so I know there must be some interest in these. Figured I'd share, if any one else is looking. I know they're made in Japan, but they look like alot better quality than the other knock offs I've seen. I'll let you guys know about quality and fitment when mine show up.

My door pins showed up yesterday, just got done installing them. I think they look way better than the cheap plastic ones our cars came with. The fronts were easy to install, just unscrew the stock ones and screw on the new ones. The stock ones are on there pretty good, I had to use a pair of pliers to break them loose then do the rest by hand. The rears are a little more complicated. You have to remove the door panels to get the pins out. Gotta love German engineering. After some looking around on here, I found this link https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...-pictures.html which helped out a little. Overall it took me about 30-40 total for all four doors. Here are some pics showing the difference in height of the original ones -vs- the new ones and showing the fronts and rears locked and unlocked. The rear ones clip on & off and the ebay ones didn't want to clip on all the way, so I used some fuel line from my RC truck I had laying around and pushed it inside the pin then twisted it on the plastic shaft of the door lock as described in the above thread, they're not going anywhere. Let me know what you guys think.
