Thumbs up is it for the 500 SEL

Are these for the 500 SEL? They are rather cool, I especially like the AMG steering wheel, which I am guessing is genuine? Tell me how the installation goes, I bought a 560 SEC recently and I've been thinking about making some changes on it, with real Mercedes products (or AMG), such as a steering wheel for example. Good luck with the parts.

I just checked his listings. Thanks for the link.

He definitely has tons of stuff. You paid heavily for those items so I hope you like them. What's the progress with installing all that stuff by the way?

just got the wheel in place, the gear shifter is killer, can t figure out how to remove the gear box to get access to the base of the shifter,

get an account on benzworld.org. w126 talk is way more active there

i did pay quite a bit, but the box and gear shifter are alot cheaper than if i bought them from other online stores. Oh well. he stuff came in good condition, new as stated so im alright with it. i just need to figure out how to get that gear shifter in now
