Which Mud Flaps fit??
Just traded up to a 2015 GLK with the "321 Sport Package" and am trying to figure out which mud flaps fit the car. The car goes to work each day at a heavy construction firm with a loose stone/gravel road. We've always had mud flaps. Running boards are not an acceptable alternative.
I've talked to a couple ebay sellers who suggest that the sets of mudflaps for cars without running boards won't fit my car - at least on the back because of the "Sport Package".
At this point, I think that A2048900578 may fit the front, but am told that A2048900878 will not fit the back.
Does anyone know what part numbers I need to get for front and which parts for back - with the Sport Package?
Thanks in advance.

Damn I just bought a set of OEM running boards and had to remove my old side skirts to fit them. My car is a black 2015 if you want I can sell them to you pretty cheap and you can use those mud flaps...because the running boards mount into the underbody I believe you will have to custom install some...might even be able to get some cheap universal ones and see what you can do

I spoke to the dealer and found that MB never made mudflaps for the rear with the sport package. However, the right ones for the front of my car are A2048900578. My dealer quoted me a price that was $20 under the best Ebay price, so they were ordered and are here. Will work toward installing this weekend.

Dead easy install. No need to even jack up the car. Angle the wheels as if turning to the side you're working on and you can pop out the push-pins and retainers (which get reused on the flaps) from the wheel well lining. Next, transfer the retainers to the mud flap, remove the tape film, pop retainers into place in wheel well, insert the pins and add the metal clip/clamp. You can put drill pilot holes and attach two new screws up through the bottom of the mud flap with the wheels in any position. The inner wheel well screw requires turning the wheels the other way in order to drill the hole and attach the screw.
The flaps are quite robust and way ahead of any aftermarkets that I looked at.

Thunderbirl, how can I determine if I have either the AMG or "Sport Package"?
I'm looking at installing Mud Flaps on my new-to-me CPO 2015 GLK 350 and want to make certain I have the correct part number.
My car essentially looks like this, with the same 20" rims/tires, I believe.
