Nice car ya got there Jangy!

How about Distronic? Can this be done afterwards by Steve? Anyone know how much he charges for this.

Question for anyone:
I was thinking about Steve doing Parktronic for me (when I save more money) but if I have problems, I'm assuming I can't take it to the dealer to have it fixed under warranty...right? Would they know it wasn't part of the original cars warranty?

Can Dynamic seats be added by Steve too?

Nick

PS Thanks Jangy for the link to eurotechmotorsports! Just what I was looking for!

I thought E55 owners were having trouble with Green Filters, specifically warping under load.

The chrome is just a fit over for the black adjuster buttons that come stock. It gives the car a bit of Bling and blends with the chrome on the interior. Also, it was very cheap.

MBenzNL can definitely do parktronic. No, it won't be on the VIN, but you can actually have it added. It would be the same as if you had them added at the dealership as an accessory. They are genuine MB parts installed by a genuine MB tech. The only catch is documentation.

I already have the K&Ns and have been with them for almost 25 years, so no plans to change now. I am not a fan of the green guys.

I don't have an iPOD, but am considering the integration, in case.

Custom CF? What parts? I have a local shop wanting to use my car as a mold for parts.
160degree thermostat....hmmmm, I've read and seen nothing but good. Just have not done it.
No radar detector for me. I may need one.
Front Air splitter? What is that? I need it.

Jangy,

These 2 are a relatively simple addition and are well worth it.

- Interior Motion Sensor (from Steve)
- UHI Phone Kit (from Steve) -- I have this and its worth its weight in GOLD!!
- TV TUNER!!! MUST GET THIS! Apart from being able to watch TV in the car, it has 2 A/V inputs which can be used for rear camera, driving camera, etc.. uses are endless!

Time to get you some performance!!! How about a nice TT kit??? LOL..

I like both!! I have UConnect in the Jeep and it is great, so I hope the MB UHI is similar.

Definitely performance next. No TT, as I love the SC (even with its limitations). I will likely go through with the suspension work even if i have to pay for some of the fine tuning. There is just so much to be gained there. Then it is off to the cooling, etc and engine.

The good thing is that they only turn on when you open the door so you don't get the ricer wanna be feel or look

Contact Steve re the Heated Rear seat option...

The Heated steering wheel is ONLY with a OE Mercedes Steering wheel
It Will NOT work on the aftermarket steering wheel
