I'm also waiting for the 3rd row WeatherTech mats. The layout is different from the 2nd row. The dealer provided me with all-weather mats but IMO WeatherTech is way better. I also have the trunk with bumper cover.

This is Original OEM LED Projector (set of two). I got this on Ebay for $100. Easy to install, took me 10 mins to do both. The trick is to pry existing light from left side on both doors. Do not bother with aftermarket ones. They are pure garbage. I tried one from Amazon and returned it. The quality is poor, the angle of the projection is off and it makes the picture oblong. Just get Mercedes OEM part.

You can always ask the seller, but my guess would be a standard mud flaps, since the only difference from standard GLB250 4matic is a grill and wheels.

Sorry about the late reply. Here it is https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rear-Trunk-...53.m2749.l2648 for the $56 eBay trunk liner.

Vladimir, the marked spot below was left by MB specifically to power the illuminated star. I’m not sure if it’s 123b, I lost my fuse chart.
See my DIY post.

Thank you for the update. Did you get your illuminated star yet? Curious if you are using OEM wiring harness or aftermarket? Please post your install once you complete it.

35 AMG line has a squarish profile vs. 250 which is round. That should give you an indication which one you need.

About the illuminated star connection.
Vladimir, I don’t know why I decided to go with the MB harness, I spent $40 on the harness and decided to follow MB star retrofit instructions and ended in nearly disaster. MB instructions say to drill a 18mm (almost 3/4”) hole in the fuse box. All the fuse clusters are contained in a large bracket that needs to be lifted to before lifting the fuse box to drill the hole safely. I thought that since I am removing the bumper to replace the grille, I would be able to remove the headlight easily and drill the hole without having to lift the fuse box. However, it was very hard to move the fuse clusters away from the intended hole and when I started drilling the wire harness sprung back and the drill mangled 4-5 wires going to fuses. I had to spend a few hours soldering and reconnecting wires in impossible positions.
Anyway, connect to the fuse spot that I mentioned with an aftermarket fuse jumper, there is a hole in the bottom of the fuse holder that you can use. See my DIY thread that I posted on this forum a few days ago.

No, look with a flashlight and you will find a hole in the bottom of the fuse box. Through that hole snake the wire from the fuse jumper or from the star, whichever is easier.

If you need genuine good-priced parts (mud flaps etc.), ask this guy on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/sch/ehv5150/m.h...1&_ipg=&_from=. He's made my life a lot easier! ))) Just have your part # handy.

You know, out of all these new SUV type of things MB has come out with, I think I like this one the most.

I found the following OEM cargo liner (what MB calls a “trunk tub,” “trunk tray” or “boot tub”) on various overseas MB websites and brochures (Canada, Hong Kong, the UK, and France). I have a 2021, GLB 4matic, AMG line, 5 seater. The part number is 247-814-04-00, and I ordered it from my local dealer for $82.00 plus tax (so I didn’t have to pay shipping). It’s also available here for $75.90: https://www.mbonlineparts.com/oem-pa...tub-2478140400. The mat says it’s made in Germany.
I prefer the OEM cargo liner to the WeatherTech (which I ordered, but returned). I like that there is a raised lip on all four sides, and that the design prevents things like groceries from sliding around in the back.
The big downside for both the OEM trunk tub and the WeatherTech cargo liner is that they only fit when the floor is at its standard level. If the floor is set at the lower trunk floor setting, neither mat fits.

Trunk Net
Just installed aftermarket trunk net that fits the floor with liner. Found it on eBay for $18. Tried MB OEM first at the dealer, but it does not work if you have a liner with raised sides. This one attaches to 4 D rings.

GLB 250 Mud Flap update
Now mid June, wondering if anyone has found any updates from MB on mud-flaps for the GLB 250 with the plastic on the wheel wells.
#47
I ordered mine on ebay from china. It was Chinese made Mercedes OEM mud flaps that are made for their version of GLB, which I think been around since 2019. $60 and I received them in a week. Installed them today and they fit perfectly. They come with a set of screws and retainers, however I mostly re-used plastic push pins. Only used 2 metal screws that came with it on the front mud flap where there was no hole on the wheel trim. Below are the pictures of the install.

No drilling. Plastic trim is soft for the screw to go right through.

Did you have to drill holes on the wheel trim to use the metal screws?
