That’s some cool hardware, MJ. Now you can rock ‘n roll even while hauling some cargo.

+1 on your OEM upgrades. They’re sharp.

Wow! Nice mods. I'll be having Steve install a phone cradle kit along with voice recognition this upcoming month. I initially planned on having a few more things done but instead I decided on possilby adding VRP's 550 kit, still undecided on what to buy. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

I really liked this Luggage Organizer installed in my W211 by MBenzNL. This E500 is a MBenzNL Demo Car for the Northern & Southern California Areas. This is the only E500 that has this Factory Option in USA at the moment (June 29th 2008) with Updated Option Codes on the Mercedes Benz VMI. Thanks to Steve Krabbenborg.
