I'm a little bit confused right now I've had my heart set on a H&R suspension set up for a while now however the only reason I'm delaying purchase is due to not understanding what shim pads are required in order to achieve the 60mm drop. The reason I need to know this is as it is is only...

My daily driver is a 1991 W126 300SE and the one thing I miss is cruise control. To buy all the individual components from Mercedes would probably cost half the value of the car, if they are all still available. Has anyone fitted an aftermarket cruise control kit to a W126? If so, which one...

I am assisting my nephew sourcing a aftermarket headunit for his 2009 W209 CLK coupe. The only thing letting the car down is the outdated in car entertainment. I think its possibly an audio 20, but can't be sure, basically a sleek looking unit but very basic with no bells or whistles. He was...

Hi all! I've bought an aftermarket reversing camera for my W221 S Class, 2009, I think the Comand is NTG3? I've bought an RCA to Fakra link wire but I understand that it can't just be plugged in to the Comand unit. Any instructions would be gratefully grabbed at. Thanks, Glyn
