? Plastic covers on the headlights under the hood ?

Hello everyone!
I write here on the forum very rarely... But read and watch very interesting!

Asking for help from the knowledgeable owners of this car....

Very long time looking for numbers(articles) of plastic overlays on the headlights under the hood... In the picture they are circled in red! Maybe someone knows and will help me in my unsuccessful searches...





Thank you!

A bluetec hybrid? Interesting. Didn't know they made that, obviously not coming into the US.

What is your question on the covers over the headlights? For reference, this is what mine looks like, a run of the mill E350.


Most likely they pop off or have some hidden screw if you are trying to remove them. If you are trying to get access to change the bulbs out, you still have to come in from behind the light housing.

I'll pass on the extra weight as I don't want it slowing me down. Ha!

Sorry, nothing of value to add here. Just couldn't resist.

Covers to both sides of the fan shroud above lighting unit frames are pictured in MB 212 introduction into service literature and multiple initial press release photos for various MY10 212 models. Not sure why they did not make it into production, contact MB direct (not dealer) for explanation and part # if still available.

Well, as you can see - Yes! )

And I just thought that most likely for US!!!

They hold 2-3 clips..., by analogy with the my W204.... And bear exclusively aesthetic function!!!

Looking for for 2 years everywhere these pads...., but still no luck!!! (((

But if they are NOT at this Amateur photo...., it means that they are 100% produced!!!!! And this is even more interesting....! The production was, but I can not find! )))

But thanks for the advice! We will continue to try to find!!! ;-)
