I finally decided to put the rear doors pins in. At first I just clicked them in, and they felt secure. A few days later, one of them had fallen out, and hid itself under my seat. I thought I was going to have to order another set. Fortunately, I was able to find it. A drop of superglue later, and they are back on. Look great. I just hope I never have to take them off again.

Replaced my pins as well- big improvement for less than $50! I didn't realize how much I disliked the oem pins until I put these on.

I simply followed the advice on here, and it was very easy. I also had one of the rears fly off, so I used a dab of Gorilla Super Glue.

So I just got mine in, fronts got on no issue. Tried to pop the first rear one on and it felt like it needed more pressure. Pushed, and now its flush when it's unlocked. Managed to use a thin knife to get it back out. Popped the stock one back on to pull it back up some. Not sure how the mechanism is in there, but should I just pull the door panel off? I think I was able to pull the mech back up into place, so maybe I'll put a dab of glue and essentially place it on there. Any suggestions?

You have to take the door panels off to install them properly otherwise they will fall out due to the vibration of driving and you can end up losing them.

Here is a link to a different thread on the forum with pixs. Quick to install. I too was debating about installing the back ones....it was easy and looks wundberbar.

I did a ton of reading trying to find a straight answer to wether or not the amg pins sit flush with the front doors. Finally i settled and bought this set of 4 pins for about 50 bucks!

They sit flush, a breeze to install and they dont have the amg logo. I put them on a 2013 c250 sport

Hope this helps!
