Hi,

The car came from the MB Dealer like this, so not sure who done the install, but they have done a very good job, looks OEM. Also has wireless headphones, so the rear seats can listen to TV whilst front is playing a CD.

Car also came with laser jammers on the front, with a small push button on the drivers sear base, which allows me to disable them for a few seconds when needed

Could you recommend any good fluids to restore the old look? I always used the MB OEM Leather cleaner. Could you recommend any Meguiars Products? Cuz it's hard to get anything else over here lol

unfortunately the MB product IS a meguiars product. IMO the absolute BEST restorer/treatment (especially for nappa) leather is Leatherique. It lessens the appearance of wrinkles, softens and strengthens the hide, and restores the original matte finish.

Thanks for the advise AlBoston, i'm going to get that done shortly. These Nappa seats do seem to wear quicker (esp. on the side bolsters) than the nornal MB leather.

Here is the URL to some 'clean' pics, including my new tinits:

Yes, easier entry/exit, as the doors open not wider, but further away from the car itself, giving more room for the door to open at the front of the car. Also handy in tight parking spaces.

Not a major benefit, but a handy one all the same.

Well, getting out of my SLs is a PITA in tight parking spaces (which there are a lot of here). So I definitely see the benefit.
