Sonax Alcantara and interior cleaning and little visual effect

Did some cleaning with the Alcantara and interior with Sonax and added a little visual effect. Interior, especially the steering wheel looks almost like new.

Nice! Only thing is it will bother me when the command knob is not centered with that AMG logo.

If your like me and always make sure the steering wheel is turned straight when you park your car, then it wouldn't be a problem.

I like the AMG model plate on the command knob. From where did you order it, and how did you apply it?

Yeah, where did you get that? The part number is for a hood emblem.

I didn't know AMG stuff, made in Germany, came in Japanese poly bags?

You would be surprised and it's not only limited to AMG stuff, Mercedes stuff as well. Here are some examples what you get at the dealer's parts department:

Why doesn't that part number match up with what's online?

Look up the cargo net part number on my attached photo and do a search and you will see that it doesn't match either, yet it came with the car brand new. I can't tell you why it doesn't match so maybe give MBusa a ring and find out?

i think the money I paid for it, it was worth every penny.

Thats a fake badge guys, these things are all over mbworld too. High quality but not authentic. Look how on the sticker is says "Mercedes-Nemz."

The asian lettering stamps on the plastic bag also tell the story.

Yeap, there are idiots on this thread and you know who you are when you answer a question that wasn't even asked.

1: Was I selling something on this thread ( read the subject )?
2: Was it a Chinese made product/knockoff? Maybe so, but I don't mind paying for it so long as I think it looks good and the key word is I. It's not a critical or performance part you need to do a FBI enquirer on, it's a emblem that if one bought it, didn't like it can throw it in the trash without blinking an eye.

6speeddavd. If you want to sell your steering wheel, I suggest you clean it up before posting it because well since your selling it, it's safe to say I would not be looking to upgrade my AMG steering if it looks worst than mine and mine looks pretty new.

I think you are taking what I said way out of context. People were curious about the validity of that piece because of the part number on the bag and I was simply validating that it is by no means authentic. You didn't seem to point that out right away although its obvious you know it is not authentic (should have just mentioned this when someone genuinely asked). Regardless, I think the badges look great and in fact debated buying one myself when I had my 2010 E63.

Regarding the alcantara steering wheel I have for sale, I am in no rush to sell. Someone will buy it who needs a core sent out to get re-wrapped. If it was in good shape I would ask what a good condition steering wheel sells for ($900+) and I am asking about half of that. And with that said, your input on my for sale items is irrelevant to this thread anyway!

I quote from your post " Thats a fake badge guys, these things are all over mbworld too " That sure sounds like I was selling this on this thread and your trying to point out it was a fake which I don't mind because it's a emblem I can throw away if I didn't like it. Again this emblem is for my visual gratification and was not asking for approval

how easy was it to use the Alcantara cleaner? My steering wheel could use a bit of cleaning too

It's really easy to clean and the result with the Sonax is superb.
