S55 AMG
I think I'm going to bite the bullet and order these. I was waiting for someone to have them installed and report on the overall quality before getting it myself, but looks like I'm going to be that person! After I deal with this last misfire issue I'm having, I'll definitely order the Ceika coilovers and see how it goes.

On the driver side under the hood there is a fuse box. You can unplug the can bus for the abc and the error becomes white and can be cleared by hitting R

at a minimum please install a front sway bar!
Thank you so much for that info ! And awesome thread btw extremely helpful !!
I will let you know how the Ceikas are as soon as I install them !

Good to know! What are your spring rates, valving, and other customizable options going to be?

Also, here is another thread by g60wall with a lot of information on the conversion process to help you out on your journey:

Let us know how everything goes! Good luck!

I noticed that after installing the sway bar in the front, it is hitting the ABC lines in the driver's side wheel well. I believe that this is what is responsible for the clunk sound that comes from that side when I go in and out of driveways. I will either try to remove that line or just leave it.
