Is that the device you put into the wiring harness in the passenger footwell?
What was your reasoning?
My biggest concern after price with those types of modules, is ... What do you intend to do if you need to get the Airmatic system serviced by Mercedes for some reason? My guess is they are not going to touch it with that device on there or charge you an arm and a leg to remove it, if you haven’t paid someone else to remove it.

Rims are looking good btw
I want to get one of these modules but I want to get some new rims first. Probably look at doing it around the new year.

Interesting. I remember when I looked into lowering options a few months ago, the only RennTECH option for the CLS was a wiring harness mess. This is a much better choice, but still much more expensive and it seems like you need a PC or tablet to set it up.

I love being able to keep the module in the storage between the back seats and just use it whenever I need it.
right now I'm playing with how low I can go safely

I'll post some pics later..I just had the ECU remapped, Renntech exhaust installed, lowering module installed and my wheels and calipers painted.
Only thing left to do is wrap the roof and paint the front grill.

I plugged my module in and gave me a weird screen with bunch of letters. I e-mailed the seller and he is saying it is attached to another car so won't work. He doesn't believe me thinking I am "re-using" this module
