Interior Trim Swap?

A bit of a long shot but...

If anyone is interested in swapping interior trim, I currently have the Burl Walnut and am looking for the anthracite poplar or even piano black. I've been pricing out an OEM swap to piano and thought I might see if someone wanted to go in the other direction. Interior trim preference is just as subjective as the paint color these days.

Note I do have ambient lighting, which I would guess is tricky to retrofit.

You should be able to find something in a wrecking yard. Someone will have totaled the exterior but still have a pristine interior.

I actually thought about that option too. Tried searching online, but many of the junk yard websites barely work and seem to be different names pointing at the same crappy inventory. If anyone has good leads, that would be much appreciated.

My car ML350 2014 have mint set of OEM Brushed Titanium interior trim (brushed Alumi trim as people though but its actually Titanium color), do you want to exchange it with your Burl Walnut set ?

I thought

the titanium option was only on European models. I have anthracite poplar and it's wonderful. I imagine removing them would be tricky.

I guess will have same issue of removing the trims too, however Anthracite Pope is very nice. If you keen to replace it with other trims, please let me know. I can buy it from you, of course exchange it to my Titanium set will be ok too.

I'm in the same boat as you OP, I have the wood trim and would love the titanium, antracite, or piano black instead!

It will give you the biggest inventory of used parts throughout North America, or dumb down to your area, along with part quality rating and contact tel#'s.

I actually ended up buying poplar from http://www.oediscountparts.com and had a dealer install it. i emailed around to find the lowest labor quote. It looks great. I plan on keeping the ML for a while (bought extended warranty) so its easier to swallow the cost pill.
