Automatic trunk closer?
I'm thinking of adding the automatic trunk closer has anyone added this feature?
I spoke to someone in parts at my local MB dealership and they said that it can be done but it's a major job.

Last time I talked to Steve he said that he could do this (I think), you might want to ask him. Keep us posted as I would like this as well.

I have it on my 55 as a factory option. It never works. In fact the car is at Merc right now getting a new module installed for that option. How many times do you really open the trunk? How weak are we as humans not to be able to close it ourselves..

But I just don't like the sound it makes when I shut it. Kind of a flimsy sound.

ya mine does that sound too, But its cause of the license plate+frame. For me this option is very useful especially because my car is black so I never have to touch the trunk. and opening and closing the trunk while your still in your seat is dope too.
