Currently, I have a CLK 500 with charcoal leather and burl walnut trim. I am thinking about installing pattern aluminum trip and aluminum pedals. Where do you think it is the best place to get it installed? MB dealership? And how much do you think it will costs?

There is no "pattern" aluminum trim for the W209. The closest ones that you can get is the aluminum trim from the CLK55, which costs around USD1,500.

As far as pedal goes, Carlsson makes pretty nice pedals incl. footrest.

As an alternative, you can get carbon fibre trimming that I am currently offering to various MB models.

Hi,

There are also AMG pedals available but keep in mind that it's not genuine but at least it looks better than the stock rubber ones.

You can just get the SL pedals. They're cheap and look good (about 30 bucks)

Hello Harris,
Can you get the Brabus aluminum pedals? Maybe we can try to get a group purchase.

How is the carbon fiber trim sale coming. Thanks for the email. Though the CF trim looks nice, I still like my wood trim. Do you know where one can get exterior carbon fiber trim?

I checked on that trim at my dealer, it was $600 plus without the install. For me that was too expensive for something which was stock on the CLK 55.

Brabus carries aluminum pedals for @295 list. They are on back order until February though.

Ok, this is possibly the most used mod at the moment in the UK. Best place is the MB dealer. Total cost in the UK £26, approx US$45. Fitting time 30 minutes max. DIY

Part Numbers below - these will fit:-

W202,W203,W208,W209,W210,W211,R170,W124s and others I can't remeber. On some models (W203,W209 etc) you have to remove the plastic split pin at the base of the accelerator pedal, slide off the old plain rubber, slide on new alloy pedal face, then resecure.

for autos:
A 170 300 00 04 : gas pedal
A 170 290 01 82 : brake pedal
A 230 430 00 84 : parking brake pedal

for manuals:
A 170 300 00 04 : gas pedal
A 170 290 02 82 : brake pedal
A 170 290 00 82 : clutch pedal
A 230 430 00 84 : parking brake pedal

Yes these part numbers are various models, but clutch, brake and parking brake are universal fit

Hi CLK270,

Thanks for the part numbers but can you please confirmed it they are the same alloy pedals as in the SL-Class.

Thinking of getting one soon but my dealer has no idea, he thinks its too cheap for it to be alloy.

Thanks.

These are basically the same as the SL.

The parking brake is from the SL (oval black rubber studs on alloy backplate).
The others are from the C Sportcoupe evolution pack (or SLK) and have round rubber studs - when fitted you won't know the difference.

Not the best pic I'm afraid - taken last week during all the snow / ice and inevitable road salting

Thanks CLK270

That's exactly what I want (well, maybe preferred the oval rubber stud but like you said, you can't really tell when its on anyway) ....have put my orders through, hopefully I will get it tomorrow, just in time for the weekend

PS, was the SL's oval rubber stud more expensive or not available?

for those of you that don't know what's the difference between the 2, here are some examples...

All done, installed the SLK pedals over the weekend, took me a little longer than I expected, the bloody brake pedal was the hardest part!!

Confirmed the SL's brake pedal are the same price as the SLK's which was around AU$35 but to get the SL's accelerator pedal, you have to get the whole accelerator assembly which is over AU$300.
