Hello All!

Just picked up my first Benz (2010 C300 - Steel Grey) and am loving every minute of it. It's not the fastest car in the world, but the ride is smooth and the handling is great. My only issues with it so far are how you have to select "Sport Mode" every time you enter the vehicle and how long you have to hold the trunk release button for it to open. lol These are by no means deal breakers, just small annoyances. Anywho, just wanted to say wsup and ask two quick questions.

1. Where can I find replacements for the black plastic push pins that hold down the trunk carpet? I got a quote from the dealership for $4 each! They look like they should cost 10 cents! lol

2. Anyone in the Chicagoland area black out their headlights? I plan on this being one of my first mods, but am a bit nervous tbh. If anyone is willing to lend a hand, the beers on me.

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to learning a lot from these forums.

JasonHu - Thanks! The seller gave me a pretty sweet deal on it. haha

Domm - My mistake, I think what I'm referring to is "Sport Mode".
