Hello,
I'm new here, but i like this place already!
Mid October is when "IT" arrives.
04' E55, Tectite/Charcoal with all the goodies except parktronic. Had to get the illuminated blue AMG door sills too, just had to
(Haven't slept a wink since my order went through!! )

Does anyone have any pics of what the new DVD/Nav sysem looks like?

Also, any thoughts on Tectite VS. Silver ?
i find tectite to be a bit more on the sober/elegant side.

Welcome aboard!

You can't go wrong either way with Tectite or Silver.

Did you order the blue amg sills from the dealer too?

Thanks for the greeting,
Yes, i did indeed order the sills from the dealer, they told me that was something they did "on site" and not at the MB factory ?!?
