New Owner of W220

Hi Guys. I've been here for a while and owned a couple Mercedes, my latest move from CLK500 to S500. CLK was making me a bad driver so i opt for something more relaxing and a tad slower. And i must say a good choice i made. i absolutely love this thing. Although a bit old, it has been well taken care of. One owner with all service records. its an 04 with 82K on the clock.
checked all the usual trouble areas and all is good (keeping fingers crossed)
Two small things i need to fix. The glove box button needs to be replaced (rubber surface is coming off) and cup holder door needs to be replaced, the mechanism is broken. I've been trying to search online for the pars but must be doing something wrong. would anyone have a moment to help? I don't want to go to the stealer.
Thanks a buch.

P.S.
Had Brabus replicas coming for the CLK, looks like the new lady is going to enjoy them now will post a pick when they get there.

how much?? i paid 8.8k cash for my 01 430 but i still tell everyone 12k lol

edit: i almost wish that i put that money down towards an 03+ s55 amg but i figured i dont want to make payments, just typical service A/B's and warm up your car every single time =)

congrats on the switch though, im also 2nd owner and car has about 95k miles, very clean!!

try rubbing Witch Hazel (its at your local drugstore in the medicines section) on the glovebox button to eliminate the coating/stickyness issue.
