Thanks for the pics!! I thought the gasket around the senor was black no matter what color the car was, thus the reason for not wanting it on the car. Also, on another note, I have confirmed info. that the '05 55 coupes will have the quad exhaust and 18" wheels!!! The cabriolets will still have the twin exhaust on one side, but get the 18" wheels. However, neither the C55 or CLK55 will get the new 7-spd tranny. The reason was due to the transmission tunnel not being large enough to fit the bigger unit.

If an S55 LWB can fit on the streets, a CLK/C definitely will

So mark would you happen to know if the regular CLK's 320's and 500's will come with exhaust pipes on each side? So one might be able to buy the CLK 55 quads and fit them on without having a long list of modifications to perform?

From what I understand the 320 & 500 will keep the single exhaust on the one side.
