Retrofit?

What could I have retrofitted onto my 2000 clk that 2001 and 2002 clks may have?

Telescoping steering wheel?
Sunroof - one touch open is something I found out is an easy mod...
anything else?

Chrome exhaust tip and the newer style shift knob come to mind.

How did you do the one-touch sunroof switch?

one touch open is standard... one touch close is the one that is not available.

Well standard on a 2001 and up I think. If you have a pre-2001 then you just swap out the unit from a 2001+ and you'll have it.

Which part do you have to swap out? Can I get this part only from dealer or are there other places to get them? Thanks...

Check this recent thread out. You can probably buy it from the dealer but ebay would most likely be much cheaper.
