Steve put the mirrors and lens on my car and activated the lens tilt feature on the passenger side mirror which is deactivated in the 2007s for some reason. His work is first rate.

We will be doing the same. R can't see too good and misses the parking assist feature.

I think so, but labor bcomes extensive on some models because you have to access the harness. the E is a 3 hour install, but you could (should) couple it to the AMG sills, since it is getting to the same are. The one we got is for a C Class, so it should only take an hour to install.

What is involved with changing out the flat for the convex lenses???

Looks to be a good mod.

I haven't done it or seen it done personally, but I have heard it is very simple. I'll know when i see it on R's car.

What's the advantage of using the convex lenses? I drove one MBZ with convex lenses in Asia but did not feel anything better than our regular here

I don't have an AMG so how different would the install be?

What body style do you have. It has nothing to do with being an AMG. If it is an E, it is a 3 hour job. A C is a 1 hour job.

No I thought it was different because you said to tie it into the AMG sills but anyways I have a W211

Now this is cool, I did not know that Steve had folding mirror for the E63 since the mirrors are a different style. Does anyone have pictures of what the power folding mirror look like on an E63?

What is the difference between the illuminated AMG doorsills from MB versus generic ones that I have seen on several websites?
