2008 Mercedes ML350 right hand drive (petrol)
Rear centre console

Hi
The rear air vent in the car is partly broken as seen in the picture, and the cover is missing.
Can one buy and replace the cover, or does the whole centre console need to be replaced?


I have only seen the air vents being sold, the cover is not included

Is the arrow blocked off or is there an indentation? Sorry, I forgot to send the attachment.

Then you are only missing the ashtray. Here are the instructions to remove the rear center console.

Also here is a copy of your DATA Card with all your features.

That blocked off portion is for the rear Air Condition controls. What I do not understand is you have vents but no AC controls.

I was wondering that as well, but I can't find any place where the dials could have been. So I just assumed it's the way it is.
Thank you.
And I did update my profile as requested, I'll have a relook to make sure.
Thank you
