Upgraded Euro Console Cover Installed

So I took a chance on the leather covered Euro console cover that member YYZ-E55 was selling despite not being able to verify proper fitment via part number. The install was a PITA as you pretty much have to disassemble the entire console to do the install. Took way longer than I planned, but the result is a great interior upgrade as far as I'm concerned. The stitched leather armrest section looks sooo much better than the stock rubber and the sliding cover instead of exposed cupholders really cleans up the console nicely.

Awesome! Thanks for being the guinea pig and testing this out for everyone.

The color looks great. Is it a perfect match?

Color match is spot on! Looks like it could have been installed from the factory.

Looks good. The PN# I believe is A2126800298. If there is enough interest let me see if I can get a group buy price from them here in Europe. Might be cheaper. Let me know.

For those of you with CF interior trim or like the Cf look, MAcarbon sells a complete Euro console with CF trim. See here - http://www.macarbon.com/store/c-class-w204-144/

I saw that piece. They must be covering just the top trim piece with the CF. (That piece must be removed from the complete assembley during removal and install.)

I would make sure that this site is selling the right console for our needs. This is a UK site and hence it could be the case that the parts there would be for RHD cars, which means that the console set-up would be opposite of lay-out that we have. I am not 100% of this as this specific PN might be for North American or LHD cars, but we might want to double check just in case. Would be a drag to get console to find out you had to reach over the console and to the far right to get at Nav/Ent control wheel!

Just got email back from this supplier. They don't have Euro console for us, only for W212.

The original owner of the console bought it for his W212 so they're interchangeable? Just need LHD

It won't work in your E63 because you don't have the DIRECT SELECT transmission.
