Some Parts Not Available in USA
Just for fun, here are some W211 parts not usually available in USA but which are fun to have.
1. MBUSA pleads ignorance and otherwise does not recognize fact that trunk net for bottom of trunk is different for models with and without pass-through loading system. Says so right in the instructions.
If you have pass-through, part number is B6 766 0105.
(Note this may change for 2007 models)
2. If you don't like the mini-spare and purchase a full-size wheel and tire, it will fit in your trunk, but you won't have a hold-down.
Hold down--a deep plastic tray--for 16-in wheels at least--is 211 898 01 07
Screws onto same threads in trunk floor.
3. Cute spare bulbs kits are available--mandatory to carry in various EU locations I think. Neat little blue-clear plastic suitcase box. B6 681 0014
Great source for this sort of thing is

You just have to use "contact" page and ask for what you want.
