I just placed an order at genuinemercedesparts.com for the two cover pieces. Turned out that site is a local dealer so I called to see if they had in stock and I could just pick up instead of shipping. They said the under cover (217-464-01-13-2A17) is out of stock in US and Germany with no known date for availability.
Anyone know of somewhere else that has the part in stock? Or link to where it sounds like some found on ebay?
Decided to make some aesthetic changes to my steering wheel, and I gotta say it looks a lot more upscale than the standard C class steering wheel. And before the haters come in, I didn't buy the AMG Steering wheel because I hate the alcantara-only option for the steering wheel. Hopefully, this mod will show that it is possible to swap out these parts, and so you won't have to resort to those ugly *** stickers on your steering wheel that look classless and super tacky. /end rant
Few things to note:
-If you plan to swap only the cover and keep the airbag, the S-class airbag cover isn't a perfect fit with the C-class's airbag. You will need to cut part of the edges of the S-class cover to have the plastic slide into the clamps properly.
-The AMG insert isn't a perfect fit with the sport wheel, as the back cover isn't completely flush with the wheel. This is due to the lack of real clips on the bottom of the back cover; there are 2 prongs you will need to stick through the rubber of the steering wheel, so have some thing you can poke through rubber to make it fit.
All parts are OEM. Unfortunately, I was impatient and didn't take a lot of pictures. Here is what the bottom cover of the AMG steering wheel looks like out of box
Prereqs: flat-bottom sport steering wheel
1. There are two T20 torx screws behind the bottom cover. They are around the middle.
2. Once unscrewed, you can pull the back cover off from the front piece.
3. There are 4 T20 torx screws holding the front cover onto the wheel. Two are located on the very bottom where the cover meets the wheel. The other two are on the top where the cover meets the center airbag container.
4. You want to be careful when removing the front cover as there are hooks shoved into the rubber that keeps it in place.
5. Align the back cover to the wheel, and make note of where the prongs will pierce the rubber part of the wheel. You will need to piece the rubber to allow the prongs to go through.
6. Put on the front cover first. The AMG front cover uses the same screw holes as the sport steering wheel cover.
7. There are two clips (see unassembled picture) towards the top of the cover pieces that will need to come together. Towards the bottom, there are also clips that will also need to be aligned.
8. Push the prongs through the rubber. You will hear the top clips snap together.
9. Screw in the bottom cover into the front cover at the top. You will use up the remaining 2 T20 torx screws.
Finished product:

Found the bag assy OEM on eBay for $319, with either black or grey/white stitching. I like the contrast of the white but the car's stitching is black. Hard to tell in your pics which color. Also, no lock getting the silver buttons. How'd you source those?
Where???? Link??? LOL. I have the AMG wheel already, just want the bag cover....
hello folks, do you know if exist part number for aluminum cover around the buttons? I crashed my one (
I attached carbon ones, but just for illustration what I mean, Im searching original aluminium.

For anyone that's gotten a hold of the airbag cover; is there an easy way to remove the cover from the airbag unit itself?
I got a leather airbag cover/airbag on eBay, but I'd like to just swap the covers and use my existing airbag.
I changed whole airbag from s-class, so dont know to say if is possible or not. But, if they sell it on ebay there has to be the way. I was afraid to buy only cover, because I suppose that, they are made manually as decoration so was worry if would jump out in case of crash like supposed to jump.
Hello this parts A2174640013 2A17 / A2174640113 2A17
Works in Steering CLA 180d AMG 2018, W117 Facelift?
VIN Number WDD1173121N6188815
1-Do I need to remove Airbag to apply?
2-But is it necessary to make some change in my steering wheel, or in the piece?
Or I just need to remove the part from my steering wheel and apply that piece that says AMG.
best regards

Had anyone gotten the back piece to sit flush to the steering wheel? Or tried one of the Chinese made Ebay parts... maybe those have a flush fit for the sport wheel.
