I have a question about the chrome trunk lid. Is that lit at all times? or is it only when the lights are on. Can you give me some more info on it? Thanks.

Thanks guys !
Das E320: the trunk lid only lights up when the parking light is on,I hook it up with the license plate lights, because you can't see it on day time, only visible at night !

Trustz, thanks for the info. on the head unit.

As for debadging, I agree with you that you should debadge the trunk but IMO, I think you should rebadge it with the E420 emblem, just to represent the E420's...Latez.

Very nice car. I like the steering wheel.

Where did you get it? How much? And did it fit the OEM air bag that came with the car?

Thanks.

mac99:

Yes, thats me !! I am on the way to my friend's company ! What car are you in ?


E-Klasse:

White Gauge Faces

The faces are from NRAUTO but I found them on Ebay. They come in silver too but I have not seen them myself. I have seen an indiglo set but they only came with KMH instead of MPH.
