BTW, did you order the same part? I am ready to order and majority of the places are selling it for ~$50ish to $60. Where did you order it from, which website?
Thanks for the help![bow](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/bowdown.gif)
P.S: will the color code be different in my case? See attached from data card or it'll be same(209-680-02-84-7376 )

You should double check with them about a color, you just need to send them your VIN.
Definitely you can buy whole armrest lid from junkyard, but I don't think that it would be easy to find one in a good condition

Yep, I bought the same part. I prefer this guys mbdirectparts.com. I bought lots of parts from them.... maybe even too many
Most likely they wont have it it stock and it usually takes 5-6 days for them to receive it from german, but I don't think that any of shops have it in stock.

Else, I'll drop the idea of used and just buy new

It makes it harder ![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
If it's your daily driver car I'd go with used one, it's easier to install

Thanks, that's not a bad idea. I'll give it a go on the old one, anyways.
Since I'll be receiving a new one tomorrow.

Alright, I used crazy glue and seem like it's not holding it. Also, I have received the new part and lock cylinder is empty.
Based on the 'German' video, I can just use a mallet and slide the old one out. Is that correct?
If so, I know WIS document has been shared. Is cylinder replacement fairly simple?
I just don't want to break anything![Frown](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)

I have the lid and old latch removed, now looking at the screenshots. Should I just break the lock and swap it in?
Thanks for the help

So I followed your direction and instructions posted on WIS, this is what I am left with, is that it or I have broken something else while pulling this cylinder out?

Yeah it did work like a charm and cylinder is in, though new latch seems more gray ![Big Grin](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Thanks so much dzmitry, truly appreciate your help.

BTW, I must say your lid in post#7 looks in great condition!
I was able to put everything back by watching that benz video. I must say once you understand the logic, it's very simple before that, it's a ROYAL pita.
Previously my old latch was broken and hence lid was a true pain.
Now it's working like a charm. Thanks again dzmitry for all of your help and patience. Without you, I could not have figured this out!!! I double salute you

Mine is 2004 with 76k miles, but previous owner let's say didn't really care about it much. Interior was trashed
![Big Grin](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
I disassembled almost every piece of interior and cleaned. Now trying to fix soft top and assemble everything back
