CARBON NEW '09 LED MIRROR

still waiting ?

how long, ah .. many problems trial one, trial two .. and finally here they are

it is installed on a display/show test machine because I wanted to check that every light and mechanism works




don't be confused if behind there's the earlier version mirror




LEDs working







that display thing (with a CLS engraved) is great: allows control of all functions and movements ... mirror heating and anti-beam function included

btw, sorry to confirm that the automatic darkening ANTI BEAM glass is specific and different from standard .. and much more expensive


now, the hardest thing: install mechanism and connections back on ..

other things to see ..coming

correct, my car is silver.

that thing, with a black mirror attached was especially developed by Mercedes in conjunction with their light components supplier, on the occasion of the official world presentation of our CLS car and its new side-mirror design.

.. so now I have enough spare side mirrors

LOL! That looks great! Keep up the good work man.

P.S. I like the grille better without that little AMG logo.

yeah .. you right, also the guys at MB told me better without
.. the same goes for the plaquette on the trunk floor
I even bought the Nurburgring sticker .. but finally decided to stick it onto my pick-up


opinion is controversial also about the original 2-pieces Front apron
