CLK Black Series Interior (Headliner, Seat bladders, etc.)

Hi everyone. Need some advice. I have a silver 08 with 16k miles. Exterior is nearly perfect and i've addressed much of the mechanical stuff. Interior is next.

(1) Headliner is sagging- Any advice on how to go about addressing this?
(2) the motors seem to work but all bladders for side bolsters and lumbar do not work. Any advice on how to source these parts?
(3) anyone with an exceptional condition driver seat for sale? i'd ask for euro seats but i know i will never get them. lol

Thanks!!!
Chris

1.) can be ordered from MB, for ~$1300 according to this thread
2.) don't quote me on this, but the US-spec reclinable comfort seats are very similar to the 204 C63 seats, perhaps look into these parts from those and compare the diagram from MB.
3.) the Euro spec buckets are the Recaro Pole Position (ABE), i have them since 10yrs ago on mine, but since then they've been discontinued from MB, but you can just get them from Recaro without the upholstery/embroidery; i've also kept the stock driver/passenger seats around, just ~15k miles used on them so they're like-new, no plans to rid them, but i guess anything is for sale with the right price.

@MiamiAMGBLK We are an authorized RECARO retailer, and can order you a set of RECARO Pole Positions for your CLK Black Series. There are a couple different options, full carbon fiber buckets with black leather are $3,495 ea. or you can go non-carbon fiber, and have AMG embroidered to the headrests for an almost identical euro look at only $2,095 ea. My contact information is below if you have any questions or would like more information!

And if you go with the Recaro's, there's a way to modify the seat rail to make it sit straight, in alignment to the steering wheel. I don't have the info but all the EvoSport cars had this done
