I'm 6'3" and the knee bolster under the driver's dash hits my shin when I drive. As a result I have to sit waaaay far from the wheel, which is not comfortable. I've heard anybody over 5'10" has this problem.
Is there a replacement knee bolster that doesn't present this problem?
I know that this is a US Mercedes thing. European benz don't have this problem, as it was meant for the US crash dummies. Is there a way to get the European version?
Thanks for the help.

I dont have this problem Im 6,2. I feel there is plenty of room. How long have you had your 210?
It's been about two months. I do like it. However, I need to make a few modifications and fixes, one being the knee bolster.

Put in your location so we all know where you are. Post some pictures too.
I removed the knee bolster, but now there is annoying engine whine and noise from the engine compartment coming into the cabin, arghhh!!
