Please don't.... I ordered them from the Marketplace section in this forum and regret it.
They actually look great but swivel very cheaply if that makes sense?

They have a lot of play to them and don't give you that satisfying click when centered.
I still have my set just collecting dust.

Yeah the E Class has that option mine did not include the tube connector.
They look damn good its just the way they feel that turned me off so I ended up removing them.

If anyone is a Socal local and wants to see them in person before pulling the plug on these I have any problem with that, heck I will even sell you my set for cheap since its just sitting there.

I bought these for my 2017 C63. Didn’t know how the vents come off? I figured if they suck I’ll sell them. $105.

they look good and if air blows out and you can control the direction I don’t see any issues with them

I am referring to the quality durability style ect... I dont see anything wrong with my stock air vents why buy chinese air vents for 250 $. I would rather spend this money on a quality oem product like my new AMG steering wheel.
Again this is just my opinion.
