Anyone have marks in the buttons surrounding the iDrive wheel from pushing it forward? I created two 'nicks' in the buttons, I wonder if I can get them replaced.

Not sure how the hell I'll ever remove the thing if it ever becomes necessary, though. It snaps on pretty tight. Don't even need the 3M sticker.

Hi B...you know I thought the same thing when I first installed it, but then after some time it looked ok. Now that I look at it again, it doesn't seem any bigger than what is S-class proportion wise and even sort of looks like the M-Drive...oh sh-t, did I just say that

I got the controller today and it looks perfect. The quality is amazing (Comparable even to hand-made!). No flaws at all. Not one plastic piece. And it matches my Sahara Beige seats
FYI These are Blackberry photos and apart from the first one, the controller looks like it's shiny. That's just light refelction. The first pic shows the quality best.

Did any of you folks use the 3M pad to adhere the knob cover to the knob? I didn't, and still found it almost impossible to pry up. These things are a super tight fit.
And I really like the look.

Mine depressed the "Back" button a few times (and presumably would cause marks if repeated many times) when I pushed the knob downward because it was down a smidge too far. I just popped the knob up a little and it clears nicely.

Mine came with two round (perfectly sized) 3M slices. One to attach the AMG logo to the new knob, and the second one to attach the new know to the controller.
Without the 3M, the controller did not react well and was too low.

FYI - just bought this AMG iDrive cover to complete the look of interior of the car. Not cheap for small part, but it seems nothing is with our cars. See here

It seams impossible to get it !!!
I have a new CLA 45 AMG Shooting Brake, and I'd like to have the same.
Others on eBay are not so nice.
Thanks for your kindly help

Their other website is here but it seems like they only have the aluminum cover. Maybe they can make a black one for you if you ask.

Edit: Just found another source, and its in black!! http://www.ebay.ie/itm/331602576085 but it seems those are out as well.
I also just wrote to the seller to see if they have any more/supply a couple since I know a few here would like to get them.

Ok update. Just got a reply back from Car Lab Tuning. They will post some on Ebay in a day or 2 but if you want them now, they have some on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/IDrive-IDrive..._cd_al_qh_dp_i.

I have one of these. Had it for ages. It just slips on over the I drive knob and it made me nuts cos it was always out of kilter. I lasted a weekend with it.
