Searching in vain for an interior trim piece

I've been looking for the Center Dash Wood Trim Bezel in Burl Walnut wood (part #: 204-680-15-71) on every web site I can think of. It's for a 2012 C250 Sport and there are none available on eBay or Amazon and apparently Mercedes has discontinued this part. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for finding this part. It's driving me mad!

I just got off the phone with AH Parts and although they had the part I'm looking for, they sold it two days ago! Grrr!!!

I suck at posting pics, but the part I'm looking for is the part that's boxed in red. I need the entire part including the vents and the burl walnut wood surround. It comes out of the dash in one piece that extends from the center console to the passenger side.
