Blank buttons

I thought the e63s was fully loaded. What package is missing in this car to have these blank buttons?

e63s
In regards to your 2nd picture with your driver side window control. Your missing the auto-fold mirror option. As for the 1st picture, I too have that blank.

I think that other button is the one for wagons where you want to flip down headrest. So left blank on sedans.

Mercedes changed the facelifted sedans. My 2014 sedan does not have the flip-down headrest button. I asked my dealer to investigate back in 2014 since I had seen pictures here of other facelifted sedans with the button, and they advised that it was a mid-year production change.

I guess its not a critical option for folding head rests, though folding mirrors would have been nice. I assume it was an individual option not in a package since the car seems to have almost every package.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
It's more like falling down rather than flipping down. It makes very little difference in vision out the back, unlike the real flip down headrests on MB's in the 80's and 90's.

my 2014 has the headrest button - maybe it was a North America delete?

The mirrors still fold when parked. I have the mirror fold button on both our E-classes, and have never used them in either.
