Let me know if you are done with...I may check... I was out for a while

My pleasure.
About Illuminated Star, any information which CAN for W212 or W218?
I'm also preparing wiring my W212.
Just curious,
Does CAN 30/4 only for 164GL or also 166GL and 166ML?

Problem solved.
Got WIS/ASRA,and figure out CAN bus.It’s all about SAM control module.
Works fine to my vehicles (W212 & W246).
After checking CAN bus of 164GL.
I’m pretty sure CAN 30/4 will work.

Good luck!

For wheels look at post 43, yes it will fit GL450, check pictures !

For chrome cross bars look at Post 9, include keys

For Carpets look at post 15, still almost in the same condition !

For black cross bars you may know how they are, I order it before the chrome but never installed, collecting dust in my garage.

Before I order this cargo I look everywhere for more pictures.... nothing. For this reason I just try to help the GL X164 comunity with pictures (maybe you are in the same boat), you will have all info in one thread.
I do like that rear mat... I have the whole set like you except my rear mat wont allow the 3rd row seats to be up without taking it out. Not that I use them much.

Looks good. This is why I just went ahead and opted for the 550 so I could get all this stuff included. I would have screwed something up trying to put something on. Haha
