Has anyone tried to install mud flaps or running boards? Are they easy to install and any recommendations? Thank you.

GLB
I just purchased a GLB and asked the same question regarding mudflaps. Crickets...evidently this isn’t a social forum.

On the MB parts websites, our vehicle isn’t an option to select to find/search parts for. I found these on eBay that say they are OEM but I can’t verify the part number with Mercedes they list: A2478903800 & A2478903900. Best bet may be to call or stop by a dealership and verify.

Thanks for sharing. I don’t quite trust those eBay vendors, especially they’re shipped abroad.
Isn’t weird that MB parts website doesn’t have it? I noticed that too and it’s disappointing.
have you looked into floor mats by chance? Everyone says WeatherTech, have you tried 3W?

Everyone I’ve talked to has said to spend the money on weathertech. After a little bit of digging and pricing around I ordered those floor mats from etrailer. They are offering free shipping and have a 110% price match guarantee. So I had them price match the weathertech website price, got free shipping and used a coupon code for another 5% off, 98xl3.

I did some digging into the mud flaps and several European websites state those part numbers above are for the GLB. Planning on calling the dealership tomorrow to see if they can order them and for how much. So far mbonlineparts has the cheapest price.

Does your GLB come with a 3rd row option? I'm skeptical whether the WeatherTech website 2nd row will fit the 2nd row with 3rd row option. I think GLB with 3rd row option has a slightly narrower 2nd row.
I called etrailer but they're not sure and WeatherTech has 250+ callers on wait lol
Please let us know how your mud flaps go, would be interested in getting that too. Thanks for sharing.

I have the third row option. Not sure when the floor mats will be delivered but I’ll let you know.

As far as the mud flaps go, I called two different dealerships and got totally different answers. One said the amg line (I have) those flaps won’t fit but will the normal GLB. Another dealer said those flaps won’t fit any GLB. Then other websites are saying those flaps fit the AMG35 as well. Maybe I’ll buy a set and be the Guinea pig.

I called WeatherTech today and they said that the 2nd row floor mats will fit the 2nd row of those with a 3rd row option, so hopefully it's true as advertised when you get it. I appreciate you letting me know when you do get it.

On mudflaps, did you come across the following websites too? I'm going try to call my local dealership too and see what they tell me
Mud flaps front set GLB-Class GLB250W Accessories from Mercedes-Benz (mbusa.com)
Mud flaps rear set GLB-Class GLB250W Accessories from Mercedes-Benz (mbusa.com)

I called my local MB dealer today and they said that the front mud flaps (part #2478903800) are $62 and back (2478903900) are $66. My GLB is not an AMG line.
Also FYI, he said the front all-weather rubberized MB floor mats are $110 in the front, $68 2nd row, and $43 for 3rd row.

I just received my weathertechs for my 2020 glb, they fit like a glove! F*@$ing expensive, it came out to about $220 with tax and shipping but great fit. I didn't bother getting for the 3rd row. Only the front and 2nd

Nice! Thanks for the update on the Weathertech floor mats. Looks like it'll be either WeatherTech or the MB mats for me... Anyone else reading this thread has experience with the MB floor mats by chance?

I'd like to hear other accessories people are putting on their GLB's if anyone willing to share!

I ordered mine on ebay from china. It was Chinese made Mercedes OEM mud flaps that are made for their version of GLB, which I think been around since 2019. $60 and I received them in a week. Installed them today and they fit perfectly. They come with a set of screws and retainers, however I mostly re-used plastic push pins. Only used 2 metal screws that came with it on the front mud flap where there was no hole on the wheel trim. Below are the pictures of the install.

Any one looked into getting a hood insulation pad? Mercedes shows it on parts diagram as Item #300, however it does not provide actual part number. I see that it is available in China, but I am not comfortable with ordering it from Chinese website.

Looks real good! Good job and congrats!
I'm not too familiar with hood insulations but my next project is installing a new grill and the illuminated star!

Do you know which fuse number the wiring harness connects to for illuminated star?

Received the weathertech mat cut for the 3rd row today. Hopefully the pictures will help in determining what will for for both third row and second row options. As always, great product but paying a premium!

Those turned out great. I called my dealerships and the parts guys called Mercedes of America. He was told the eom mud flaps (2478903900 and 2478903800) will not fit the amg line. However, Mercedes will be releasing parts available for the GLB later this year. Take from that whatever you will.....🤷🏼

I’ve never heard of the hood insulation pad before. Can you post the link to the parts diagram?

Here the link on ebay for AMG mud flaps. Not sure it they will fit, but that is what the description states. Mine fit perfectly for 250 4Matic.

As far as insulation hood the diagram below. The insulation pad should be able to reduce cabin noise. Item 300 is the insulation blanket and 310 are the clips for it.

I've seen a few videos and was gonna get more in depth once I ordered it but I got this from another thread.

"plug your red wire into the S8 cable and run a 5Amp fuse to slot 123b"

Hope that helps champ

do you have a photo to show how your 3rd row turned out? You mean you took a WeatherTech cargo mat and cut it for 3rd row floor mat?

I believe post #15- I posted photos on the 7 passenger cut/fitment from weathertech. I’m not sure how different the 5 passenger fitment is. I haven’t altered or cut anything in the picture. If you use the third row you’re more than likely going to have to remove the cargo mat completely. I’ll use that row maybe once or twice a year so it’s not a concern for me.

This mat is for the lower trunk floor setting. Not the best quality though. But fits perfectly.
