C63T AMG from Germany
Hi Guys,
here`s my new car & project.
C63 AMG estate from 2011 with PP+ (487HP).
It took me much time to find an C63 not black/black.
I already changed some things on this car - and keep going.
Hope you like it and have some new ideas for me
First shoot after buy
Installed double cup holder and iPhone holder
Installed emblem at fender and code 942
Facelift rear lights
dyno test before ecu tune
Facelift speedo is waiting to be installed and coded

2010 C63 Estate
Welcome to the Estate life! hahaha
Mate, brilliant looking car. Love your interior. Its spot on.
So, that cluster, thats the one with colour display in the centre?
Where did you obtain that from? I didint think they would fit? Who will do your coding?
What did you have in the centre before the cupholders?
Also, 507 stripes, what colour did you go for?
Did you order through Benz dealer?

Thanks!
@ AMG893: Yes, the cluster is from the Edition 507, so it`s facelift.
Bigger center display and with color.
That guy who will code it for me also told me that it will fit with small change.
We`ll see next week
In the center there was the same hole but without these "butterflies" in the middle. Something about 20 EUR. Called double cup holder at mercedes.
I choose matt black for the stripes, so same as my wheels are.
I think will fit good together.
I don`t found that stripe in the EPC so i have a guy printing for me the same stripes in color i want.
@ JPetros2008: Code the cluster is much more work then other things like lights. First the cluster has to be NEW. The millage will be imported automatically, but all the services not!
So you have to connect the computer to the main server from mercedes and input ALL services manuell.
Duration about 2 hours only for coding.
But they already did it multiple so it will work.
Stay tuned

I wonder if you'll get the facelift command as well when installing the speedo?
Facelift display and everything
... just curious to know how it will turn out. Keep us posted

Yes, facelift comand from W204 or the latest comand from W212 can also be fit and coded into the earliest W204 - no problem.
Also things like the new ILS from facelift, Lane assist, assist blind spot,...all that stuff from the last models can be coded and installed.
If somebody wants coding for cluster ore something else let me know - i will ask if its possible to code for you here and send you the parts

Great car Anatoli - You only need some better photos
Just one question - aren't all these upgrades and coding expensive?
Wouldn't it be easier to just get a 2012 C63 ?

No, upgrades are not as expensive as supposed.
If you can do a lot by yourself its ok.
I was looking specially for the last pre facelift model!
First reason is cause of the better cooling with the "old" front bumper.
With the facelift bumper the cooling for the motor is getting worse then before.
Also the "older" transmission i loke more...with the MCT you always (can) have the problem of roughter shiftings, with the old one there is no problem.
Better pics will come after installing the suspension
Thanks

FL cluster installed.
Suspension KW V3 installed.
Some fat for non rust.
Cluster is working perfect, no error. Mileage is correct, also alle service intervalls.
The fl cluster didn`t fit into my dashboard.
First try - use the fl cluster (inner life) and the pre fl case.
Worked great, but the sign for turn lights are on the pre fl case.
But the fl cluster has the sign in the cluster! So i had the sign twice.
Didn`t like it.
So we found a not used GLK fl cluster. It has the same case but without the sign
Now everything looks perfect, i am happy
fl cluster with my old pre fl case
fl cluster with glk fl case

Nice work! It seems so easy for you on that side of the pond (codes and updates).
Is this being coded through a dealer?
What part of Germany are you in? Beautiful country and, from experience, most people are genuine. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

No, a Dealer can't do this.
There are only i think 2-3 persons in Europa can Code things linke that.
I am from the South of Germany, called Baden Württemberg.
Let me know when you makes holidays, perhaps we can meet
