Help Ordering Aluminum Pedals (and yes I did a search)
OK so I called my dealer ahead of time and inquired as to whether or not they sold the aluminum pedals for the W211…they said, “yes” and as fate would have it they happened to have a set (sans dead pedal) on hand…great!...so I head to the dealer. Pick up my box of pedals, get home, look in the box and while the pedals look pretty good…each pedal attaches via exposed Phillips screws (not a good look). I look at the box a bit more and realize that these are not oem pedals but rather performanceproducts.com pedals being resold my dealer. So they’re going to have to go back.
The dealer now tells me that the only way to get the pedals is to buy the entire pedal and arm assembly…I think they’re wrong.
In the meantime I’ve done a search here for “pedals” and have come up with a couple good posts but nothing that I feel I can take to the bank…seems to be some conflicting info out there…so can someone help me with the definitive info on what I need to order to get the oem aluminum pedals…in particular I would like the specific part numbers.
TIA
Chris
i saw in one of the posts scorchie said to do the following:
I assume that will work…is that the best thing to do? Or should I ask for pedals from an E55?
You know what I'm after...just this old pic and like ATS the dead pedal would be an added bonus

Ask for the pedals for the R171 SLK (gas and brake) and R230 SL (parking brake).
