I have a set I would be willing to sell, they were only in the car for about 1000 miles and are in perfect condition. I repleced them with CLK DTM seats.

I don't know what the door trim on Gulf specs look like but you will need somewhere to install the switch for the recline, etc as well as the wiring.

isnt the switch located on the side of the seat?

as for wires am sure we can figure something out since the car came with

both seats. thanks for the insight though.

I might be willing to work out some kind of a trade for door panels, I have been trying to get my hands on some euro spec carbon fiber door panels. I will shoot you a PM

Gulf spec is the same as Euro spec. Carbon fiber door panels, no side airbags. The recline switch is on the seat, as are the lumbar and side bolster buttons.

Most likely Mercedes used a standard CLK wiring harness for all markets, which means you probably already have a electrical connector for the US seats to work. If so, than it's going to be plug and play.
