CLK HEADREST SWITCH

`


I did a search and found conflicting results

Will the headrests from a 2013 ML

fit and work in a 2003 CLK 500


Thanking Rodney (most likely) in advance

Thank-You

Are you talking about the switch panel on the door, or the headrest itself? My copy of EPC only cover through MY2011 so I can't check that 2013, but the headrest switches part number for the W209 is a "209" specific part number. If you are talking about the actual headrest, then I suspect it will fit. I assume the ML's headrests use the same spacing as the W209 and have the same active restraint mechanism. If all that matches, then I don't see why not.

2001 ML 320
ML 350 BALANCE SHAFT PROBLEM

Thank you for your response. I don't know, I looked at our engine and that was the serial number stamped on it. Our vin# is 4JGBB86E38A306017. Also, I have attached a link from a lawsuit about the balance shaft gears. I a bit confused now, the article lists 2008 ml350's, but your saying the problem was corrected prior to our model year. Please advice... thank you.

You probably want to move this to a more appropriate thread regarding balance shaft issues.
