I have the same tray, cost over £30 but worth it, came by slow boat from China to UK, took over 6 weeks. Was able to track it but as the tracking information was in Chinese I found it difficult.

Just want to let people know, the mud flap does not fit the 2020 GLE 450 (without AMG package).
This is the one I ordered:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TS6QHGF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TS6QHGF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And as you can see from the picture below, the extra black trim at the wheel well does not match the shape of the mud flap. (but it does looks like it match the shape without that trim piece)

Just to confirm - the illuminated star cannot be retrofitted on a vehicle with the driver assistance package (which included distronic plus) correct?

Yep. Same one I posted about in #173. It only took a few weeks for mine, and I just took the little AMG pads out altogether. I didn't find them useful. It is a nice accessory if you don't mind the price tag.

I think the pads are there to stop things rattling

I dunno, maybe. I don't think those dinky little pads aren't going to make much difference one way or the other. The tray I got is covered in the automotive fuzz material, for lack of a proper name or better description, and that helps to keep small things from sliding and possibly mitigate rattle against an otherwise hard plastic surface. But if the pads are meant for minimizing rattles, at least they are thinking and giving you something a little extra for the cost.

My tray is hard black plastic and needs the pads.

For anyone who use EZ Pass in the east coast and have a dark interior.
I have to mount mine at the center bottom of the windshield (with Acoustic Comfort Package), and the white ez-pass stands out a lot during driving (and from outside also).
This cover both the interior and exterior side so that it is less visible (against the dark trim I have)

Good catch I searched and didn't find this one, eventually spray painted mine black

I was going to do that, until i heard that if you do and you need to return the transponder in the future (when the battery die, for example), they will charge you for it since they cannot "reuse" the case.

Hi - my GLE-350 was delivered yesterday. Apparently they no longer(?) come with a tray... mine did not, and they looked thoroughly confused when I mentioned it. (They also no longer come with a USB-C to USB adapter, either.)

Same for me when I got mine in November.

OEM locking roof rack crossbars

I posted about these back in April when I got them: https://mbworld.org/forums/gle-class...ml#post7743105

After using them a few times, I don't think I can recommend them. Despite looking easy to use I have found them very fussy to install and remove. They are different front and rear, and each has a front/rear orientation, but even if you get all that right I have found them to be a pain.

Hi Bikedude,
I'm sorry you didn't get the tray as it should have come standard.
As for us Canadian market customers, I was told M-B Canada does not supply the USB-C to USB-A dongles; this was back in July 2019 however. I ended up buying 2 Lightning to USB-C cables from Apple (Yes I bought overpriced cables, but I don't trust cheapo cables for my $1500 phones).

What tray are you guys referring to? I didn't get any tray either and I took delivery end of November. I did get some of the usb cable adapters though, along with the fragrance bottle and sample fragrances.
Also - did anyone actually get a physical manual booklet with the vehicle because I didn't?

They’re talking about the coin tray that goes in the storage bin in the arm rest. I didn’t get the tray either but I got two cables, one fragrance bottle, and a leather case with the owners manual.

Hmm. Thanks! Yeah, didn't get the tray, got the cables, I think two as well, fragrance bottles + samples of other fragrances, but no leather case with owner's manual. Was this in the glove box or is it hidden somewhere?

Ended up ordering that tray from China for like $15. Just got it actually. Took about a week.

My sales rep handed it to me personally the day of signing along with the window sticker that was supposed to be stuck to the car.

See posts #122 & 161 above. You should have gotten a whole packet of booklets in a case.
