For those with Avantgarde model, can consider this easy mod to change the black plastic door pin to the steel ones. Both the front and rear door pins are screwed on. Just remove them by turning anticlockwise with a plier.

Nice. I will go get it too. 👍

The W213 seat adjustment buttons came in matte silver. If you look at the S222, those buttons have piano black inserts surrounded by matte silver. You can achieve this look too with an easy and cheap mod.

AMG pedals. To install, you need to remove the black rubber cover from the brake pedal and replace with the AMG one. The accelerator pedal does not come with any cover so you can just put on the AMG one.

Burmester speaker cover. Just stick on with 3M tape. Brightens the cabin.

[swissfondue]

The S222 cupholder has matte silver trim but the W213 doesn't. So I added one. My purpose is to replicate the W222 cabin as much as possible in the W213

You can either buy through ezbuy for those taobao merchants that do not ship overseas, or to buy from eBay/AliExpress.

The CF console is not a wrap. It is a genuine CF replacement I believe that Xelaaaa did at Elebest. Taobao also sells a CF console cover that you can just stick over your existing piano black console but it is not as flushed.

So anyone tried to really do up the basic burmester speaker and tweeter? And whats the most cost efficient way?

Sorry wasn't around to reply. I bought mine from taobao for around less than 150 if I remember correctly. It's real cf stick on. Fully flushed though. So far no problems with fitment. Hahaha. Makes the inside look like the amg model. Came with the words "AMG" but decided not to stick it on.

Nice! Where did you get your rims sprayed? I wanted to do the same but couldn't find a shop that knows how to do it. Thanks!

Hi sms1219,

It looks very nice when you change to the diamond grill. Where did you change it and is it costly to change?

Bro,

Swee! You can consider going for an E43 look with your diamond grille. Just need the AMG front and rear bumper, and quad exhaust cover to complete
