The Story of BOSS, my Merc W212

[kr_clk]

Hello Bro.. Not sure if you are asking me but I got mine from a bro. A month ago bro prince abdat and bakuteh dekitted and offered. I got them both. One for my bro's c class and the other me. Both are without pedal shifters. I was told by some; that the steering can be acquired from Pandan C&C or Benzline. Installation at Benzline was 80$ including programming the buttons to work with your Audio Command. Downtime 30 mins and Jeff (the installer) is very knowledgeable according to a few merc bros I've encountered. Hope this helps.

Ps: you may order the steering with pedal shifters if you wish to have them. Not sure how much though...... Enjoy your Merc!!

Hi MartinJames,

I saw from this thread that u've acquired your pre-owned steering wheel from a fellow forum member. You also mentioned that u were purchasing the steering with pedal shifters online? Which website do u recommend?

I'm interested in getting the 3-spoke, flat-bottom steering wheel.

Hi Bro, let me check for you.  I have an office in Germany so I can buy items from there and ship out from the office.  Let me see if there is one on offer there.  No promise ok? James

Very tempting!! Was quoted 2.2K by benzline, wheel + airbag.

 

Seems like quite a fair bit of savings when purchased off ebay. But question is, are they trustworthy? Are these genuine parts? Coz steering and airbag is no joke man...

I want to change so many things!! The steering wheel.. the rear tail lights to the W212 FL tail lights.. dk where to start from!

hi Bro, get their company address and mobile number and do a search.  Worth the effort for the savings.  As for what to do first, I (personally) tend to go with comfort first.  The Lamp will work until you are ready to change but the diff between Stock steering and AMG steering is a lot.  Ask BakuTeh bro..

 

My 2 cents (as some people may want to "chng" first then other enhancements), James..
