That's what mine looks like. It hadn't really occurred to me that the logo is upside down or not. The thing that did occur to me is that the little mat is flimsy and bunches up/scoots around if touched even the slightest.

I ordered one from this ebay seller:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Armres...-/252591086193

It doesn't fit. Not sure what to do with it. Can I be bothered to return an item to China when I have to pay the cost of shipping?

try to switch it around.
Make sure the coin tray is facing towards the command know/mouse pad.

Tried that.

I have the Off Road Pack and I wonder if that makes a difference as there are two buttons on either side of the push-button latch - one to activate the off-road modes and another for hill descent control. The casing to the rear of the buttons bulges out somewhat - it's not a squared-off shape.

...so the buttons are hitting the two front tabs of the tray, is that what you're saying? Or is the tray seriously long, or wide, or short?

You can see the shape of the accessory doesn't match the shape of the storage unit.

Here is mine. Looks similar like yours.


Without the tray.


The tray is sitting on top of the armrest storage.




The tray is in.



The tray is inside. Closed.

So, I am not sure what is wrong with yours but mine fits perfectly.

I think it's the shape of the aperture at the top where the push buttons are located (behind the Comand controller). You can see on my picture that there is a bulge there rather than the squared off shape you have.

After look at your picture closely, yes it is different.
Interesting. Looks like MB modified it a bit to accommodate the off road buttons.
We don't even have off road package offered here in Canada.

You could try trimming the tray at the front to accommodate the center deviation caused by your off road buttons

I'll see what that might entail - it may mean that the rigidity of the tray is compromised. It does appear to be pretty hard plastic so may not stand up to being trimmed so drastically.

Or...........I might just sell it on via eBay.

When you look at the center armrest container on Amazon, it pairs it with
these these
.

Has anyone tried them?

And I hesitate to open up a whole new can of worms, but if yes, how do they fit?!

Thanks!

I have. I like them and they actually look pretty good- even though I have a light interior.

Just received mine through the post. It fits well enough but I'm not sure whether I'll get used to it, it seems a tacky intrusion into MB quality. I can certainly do without that logo.

These must be popular, just ordered one from Amazon and won't be available until late February/early March. Hope it fits right, seems a little hit or miss sometimes. Definitely, something MB should have included, added or made available.

2009 ML350 and 2018 GLC
Amazon has a center console tray

I purchased a Salusy Center Console tray from Amazon. It was $14.89 and arrived in 2 days. Fits my 2018 GLC perfectly with no negative issues.

Amazon Amazon

Mine arrived yesterday and fit my '18 GLC43. Looks exactly like Mountkeen's, above. Paid $19.99 with shipping included. I would probably give 3.5 - 4 Star (out of 5 Stars) rating. The 2 tabs at the front seem rather thin and any type of abnormal pressure and I could see them breaking off, which would then render this tray pretty much useless. The rest of the all hard plastic tray seems fine, however when I close the driver's side flap I see the tray move, while closing the passenger side flap, the tray doesn't. Yeah, a little OCD. Anyway, the rubber mat isn't 100% fit but close and mine came with an "adhesive promoter" in a handy wipe like packet that I guess you are supposed to either rub on the plastic or the back of the rubber mat to get it to stick. I didn't really use it because once you opened the packet up it smelled like a friggin chemical factory...don't want that smell lingering in my vehicle, so I just tossed in the trash. Overall, a great idea and useful piece, I just wish MB offered as a higher-quality like accessory item in the $40-50 range, which is about the max I'd pay from OEM.

Hi Mountkeen, did you find another one that fits the GLC with offroad package? I need the same.
