Calling All Covercraft Owners
Just took delivery of a Covercraft Evolution indoor/outdoor cover for my 2016 212 Wagon and guess what, it doesn't fit! The mirror pockets are in the wrong location and I had to pull very hard to get them over the mirrors when folded. Can't get them over at all when the mirrors are extended. Of course this is attempted before the front or back has been attached.
I assume their pattern is off, but perhaps it worked with the pre-FL cars. Anyone else have fit problems with Covercraft on their 212 wagon or sedan?

No AMG unfortunately, and we'll just leave it as that
I have a Covercraft WeatherShield HP for my 2013 pre-face lift W212 sedan. It fits like a glove, with the mirror and roof antenna pockets exactly as they should be. I don't have pictures, but imagine a tailored fit shirt for men; that's how snug and fitted the cover is. I don't have problems putting it on, both front-to-back or back-to-front (although it can be difficult to do it solo as the cover tend to slide off the car).

The ebay seller is still checking with the Covercraft factory to learn if they were even aware of the model facelift but regardless I will probably just return for refund. And its a wagon cover...would look funny on your car ;-)

If you car is garaged typically then what really is the need for the cover? Is there tons of dust and film that still builds up in there?
