ML 320
2002 ML320

First my name is Joe, second I drive a 2002 ML 320.

It's a base model but I love it. It has manual seats. If I purchase leather / power seats do I have to create a wire harness to run power To the seats or are ML'S of my vintage pre wired?

Also FYI I just replaced the front shocks with KYB shocks and it now rides wonderfully.

This is my third Benz
First was a 1983 300 SD
Then a 1993 190 2.6

I love the Benz products!

I need power seats to work in this ML so any information will be greatly appreciated

Joe

ML's are prewired. To be sure check under the seat, you must be able to see a harness.
Having manual seats means one less issue that can go wrong........Its not such a bad thing. Its not that you have to adjust the seats every hour or something.......
Save your money for something more important. Believe me, you will have a lot of other parts to spend on.......
