    W205 Musings

    I have had the car for a few months now and after a few teething issues of getting used to controls etc, I have to report that in my opinion the W205 is an incredible car and a massive leap forward on the W204. I can honestly say that I have no complaints other than some of the screen menus for...

    W205 Musings

    I am awaiting my new C220 W205 AMG Line estate this weekend. Like you I had one for two weeks as a courtesy car following an issue with my W204 estate. I cant help but agree with everything you have written, except that I also wanted to add that Tomtom nav systems is awful. I ended up ticking...

    Will this steering wheel fit my car ? w204 2008 c320

    The wheel pictured could come from a few AMG Line variants with the 'Plus' spec that gives the red stitching. It wont work with the W203. The paddles should but the lights and button functions are not likely to. Also the airbag is different so at the very least you will need your ECU...

    Mercedes-Benz Sport Steering Wheel w204 upgrade

    I am afraid its only compatible with W204 models. I always have them available. If you are interested in W203 then send me a private message and Ill see what I can do. If I can source a donor wheel we could achieve the same effect for you.

    The AMG paddles are totally different from the standard ones. Different shape with a single mounting screw in the centre rather than the two screws on the standard. I can offer wheel and paddle upgrades that fit and work. Lots sold through Ebay. Mercedes C-Class upgrade W204 leather...

    AMG steering wheel for W212 W204 and others

    There appears to be a variety of outcomes with fitting the facelift wheel, from no problem through to nothing works. The original wheel on the W204 is shapeless and skinny, but it can be upgraded with a high quality aftermarket replacement Mercedes C-Class upgrade W204 leather steering...

    W204 paddle shifters

    They take a bit of fetteling as they are a different shape from the original ones. The plastic unit is oval shaped and the alloy more rectangular so you need to increase the size of the recess with a craft knife or scalpel. The mechanism is also slightly different as the plastic ones are...

    If you are putting it on a standard model rather than the full AMG you might consider going for a professionally reshaped and recovered wheel. Have a look at my listing and pictures. As you will be using the original airbag it drops the cost down to £259. Mercedes C63 AMG Black leather...

    Steering Wheel Restoration

    I have sourced a donor wheel and a really good guy to do both reshaping and recovering of the wheel on my W204. The quality of the job is absolutely faultless and you can specify finish and stitching colour. I have also further modified the wheel and fitted the AMG alloy gear-change paddles. If...
