SL 500
Thumbs up SL replacement Trim --- Need Help

Hello All,
First post and just wanted to say hello and thanks for any feedback available!! I have had my SL for about 4months and love it. Ive searched everywhere online for info on replacement parts and have hit a brick wall.

First i dont even know the name of the piece i need it's the plastic piece in between the rear window and actual body? any help on where to get it or what it is called would be a great help!

Also i purchased it used and it doesnt have the keyless start hooked up. Anyone have a general idea on what the price would be to get that option working?

Thanks again!!

To make the KG work if not factory installed would be awfully expensive, and may not be possible. You would have to replace the door handles, the shift lever, probably a wiring harness and god knows what else. I just don't think it is feasible.
