i don't see a point for it if you don't have the steering wheel shift buttons.

What do you mean? I love the small shifter. I want it, just to have it. My C32 shifter has faded and the "C32" is discolored.

the CLK BS shift knob is so small i don't think it'll feel right to shift left and right with that thing.

Yeah, 32. I don't think there is a noticeable difference between shifter areas on 32 and 55. I wish I knew if this bolted on!

Oh man, now I'm more tempted... or more confused. lol. I really want to do this. If its a matter of cutting the shifter shaft then I am gonna do it.. but I fear its more than that.

Will do. Thanks.

Been searching the forum, still no definitive answer about how this fits, or even if it will.

Man, I just want that shifter or the R171 Brabus one... both impossible to get.

Only trying it out you will find out.

My Carlsson shift knob is for the CLS and when I put it on mine it is a very tight fit. Now if I want to remove it I'll probably pop a vain or punch myself in the face doing it

For a 2005 C230 Coupe do I need to get a different Clock Spring?
I don't see the wires coming from the shifter in the existing clock spring.
