I'd be in for a group buy...but it looks like he jacked the price in his ebay auction to $130.00 plus $20 for shipping. Guess he got wind of the excitement generated in this thread.
As cool as they are, that's pretty steep for key fob covers...

BTW, I got nothing to do with this guy, other than buying a set from him!

Ordered mine. Can't wait. OP, thanks for the thread. I've been wanting a set since I saw them a couple months back online, but no one was offering them. These, plus my AMG door pins should add about 50 RWHP

I agree, it's expensive for what it is, but that's the case with anything made for our cars. It's Mercedes tax. I hate it, but it's there. Look at the price difference between headers for an American v8 engine and headers for our car. Intake systems that cost $2k? A supercharger kit for $15k??? FML, should've bought a Prius, lol.

If I could get the weistec kit for $10K including install, it'd be on order before I even finished typing this post. I believe at the cheapest I've heard it's $10K plus around $5K labor. Anyone please chime in if you've seen otherwise. On a stock M156, the kit would yield an increase of around 100 HP. That's $150 per pony. I haven't hit the lotto yet, so in the meantime, I'll just enjoy my AMG key covers instead

I dont' see why it wouldn't fit
I had an 09 before i traded her in for the Black Series. The only difference I noticed in the key fob was the side that the actual buttons are on. The backside without the buttons seems to be the same that I recall.
