I have no knowledge of these guys but have happened across their website a few times while searching for stuff over the years.

The site seems to have been facelifted recently so they are presumably still trading!

You have to love MB for that don't you?

The ones for Chrysler Crossfires will fit too I suppose

Yep. Nothing is standard, but everything is.

Grav had some a while ago. Will speak to him over the weekend. You never know, he may still have them in the boot of his 55, seems like everything else is there

There are some here but probably the most expensive I have ever seen on eBay

Usually you can get them for £10-£13.

On a similar note, instrument cluster rings, are they difficult to install on a W202?

Theres a HOWTO here by SYM but pics not showing. SYM used to have a 202 at the time.

Is ebay the only place to get these or do places like eurocarparts and GSF sell them too?

Try www.matrixcar.de also known as powerstyling on ebay.de

The dash and heater rings are easy to install and do look good.

Thanks, had a look at powerstyling on ebay but they don't have those bits. Found another seller on ebay who does them though. Do they 'clip' into the holes for gauges similar to the dash rings?

Stick on inside the binnacle with the d-sided foam already fitted to them.
