Broken cup holder!
The chrome rings cracked around the cupholder and Mercedes only sells the part as a whole. The cupholder assembly is $161 locally and I can usually find it online cheaper but THEY WONT GIVE ME THE PART NUMBER. It's ridiculous, their excuse is "we work off commission so we're not gonna get any $ if we gave you the part #"
Can someone provide me with a cheaper place to get it and/or the part #? Thank you!!!

I had the exact same thing happen to mine and they covered it under warranty. I will try to track down the invoice and get you a part number by the weekend if no one else finds it before then.

CLS55 plus a few Ducati's
Aren't these dealers idiots.... if they helped you out here on a part they make next to nothing on, the chances of you coming back when you have a big profit problem would be that much greater..... short sighted fools with no business acumen!

CLS55 Designo 030
Mine was replaced under warranty after I brought it in with a laundry list of stuff. Here is my bill:
"Customer states chrome peeling off cupholder in console"
684860 Cupholder, R & R / replace if necessary
219-680-04-14-9051 BRACKET
It lists for $125 and parts.com has it for $86.25 + shipping
Good luck.

the fact they won't give a part number is absurd, and to go further to tell you
it isn't in their interest to do so is even lower brow.......
unbelievable!!!
my parts department always gives me numbers and the figures they charge for them....
and I do not settle for less......
good luck!

A while back my chrome peeled off on one of the cup holders. The chrome was kind of like a chrome tape. It was covered under warranty and they replaced the entire cup holder. It makes me think you can't just replace the chrome.

Thanks Hyperion,
No, the dealer does not have the ring only for sale. Even though we have a plater we deal with on a daily basis, plating plastic is quite difficult $$ so I just painted mine black.
