Hi all,

I just completed the CarPlay upgrade on my 2017 A217 and would like to replace the (useless to me) ashtray with a storage compartment that includes a wireless phone charging capability. I found a video where Chris from CKMCarDesign made one (see video below) and it mentions in the video that he sells finished ones, but I can't find them on his site. I assume they are out-of-stock. I really don't want to make this a DIY project. Anyone know where to buy one complete?

Cheers

I just did the conversion. Took all of 30 minutes in total and was only 105.00 for everything.

Where did you get the parts for this?

I bought it off EBay

Do you recall who the seller was? I would like to see if they are still selling.

I bought it used. Only one available at the time. Mercedes discontinued them back in December. Sorry

‘I tried ordering but the site says that part (the tray) doesn’t fit a 2019 S560 cabriolet. Their drop down box don’t have an option for the convertible. When you get the parts, please post whether they worked and a pic.

thanks again!

Sure thing. I actually found the part numbers on someone else's thread and was able to order. I can't imagine your console is any different, but I could be wrong. Happy to post once the parts are received and installed.

So I received my astray which I thought deletes the lighter portion. Guess what. Oh they deleted the lighter alright but just the metal lighter. The tray still has an outlet plug in it where the lighter would go. So there's not enough space to place a phone it. It's essentially the same ashtray without the physical pull-out lighter. I'm debating using my drimmel to cut out that portion out but that will be a later project. So save your money unless you feel like doing some cutting work.

If you want to buy mine and the tray liner both brand new and unmodified PM
