Just make sure to do the conversion correctly because the Euro is very strong right now and can be pretty high some days. Also be sure that the seller will ship to the states and for how much? They look complete and in great condition. Good luck on your bidding...

I always wonder where these guys on ebay get them from?...Is it a lot more expensive just to buy them from Mercedes direct?

Not only from ebay.de but also from ebay in the US. That's where I bought 2 sets from and sold one of them. Yes, it is a lot more expensive, the junkyards even sell them at $6-700 for a set, whenever they can get their hands on one...

Just a sidenote to mirrors: In Europe memory seats are not standard on the W210 and therefore 9 out of 10 offered sets of mirrors on german ebay will not have the memory motors that are needed to support the memory settings that come with the memory driver seat.
Standard adjusting mirror motors only have 3 wires, the memory ones have 7 wires...

If you do care about the memory mirror feature, be sure to get a set that has memory motors.
Simply swapping the motors (and wiring) of your current mirrors is possible BUT the mirror glasses will sit off centered afterwards (due to a slightly different motor fixation). With an auto dimming glass (which isn't standard on euro W210s either), the edges are too thick to fit inside the blinking mirror housing when the oldstyle non blinking mirror motor is used...

greetingz,

Is that for the complete set? If that's the case, I'll send you the money for 2 sets. I'm pretty sure Steve would also be very interested in these as well.

greetingz,
How about the connections for electrically folding mirrors? Is the motor located in the mirror housing?

When you mean memory mirrors I assume that the feature also includes where your passenger mirror tilts down when you put the car in reverse? (Now that's a feature I couldn't live without!)
