2015 E400 wagon
Designo lettering help

Howdy! My wife has a 2015 E400 wagon with the Designo interior package. After a visit to the dealer I noticed that the "o" from "Designo" which is lettered on the passenger side dash was missing. I suspect the letter was snagged when they were cleaning the interior. Initial contact with the dealer came back with "you need a new dash to get the lettering for an amount of $5,200.00". I don't think so. Can any of you out there point me in a direction to find a missing "o". Thanks in advance, Steve E.

A 2015 E400 wagon is an S212 and while the "o" is not replaceable, the trim piece is. Post or PM me your VIN and I or someone else on the forum can look it up for you.

I'm not sure if any of the USA dealers will ship to Canada, but you could use a package forwarding service.

15 Best Package Forwarding Services From US to Canada for 2023

Canadian list is $1,500 for the part vs as low as $300 USD from one of the USA dealer part sites.
