LA99CLK320

My plastic dust cover (the one that moves) over the shifter cracked/broke today so I went to MB and bought a new one.
I was wondering if anyone has detail information on how to remove the shifter and console with the clips so I could replace it. Does the entire center console have to be lifted? From what I could tell it looks that way to me. I have the clip removal tool if that is needed, can anyone here please help me with pic's or instructions on the proper technique so I can replace it?

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.

are you talking about the rectangular black plastic piece that goes around the entire shift assembly?

if it is, that one is real easy to replace... just use something like a business car to pop up one corner, and the whole thing wll come up & off... to install, just push place over the opening and push down...

thats all there is to it...

I have 2005 clk500 and same problem, top of cover pops up when I shift to "drive". I put lever back into Park and push the cover back down. I think "****" are broken off on top portion of cover... How does this one replace?

You may want to post this question the W209 section as there may be differences between the models.
