OK, Houston, we’ve had a problem here. Once again, Mercedes-Benz have managed to make the simplest of jobs difficult.
I need to remove both ends of one of the flexible cable conduits between the bodyshell and the tailgate, in order to run a new cable through it.
The bodyshell end came off without too much of a fight. The other end? No.
My wife has tried and she can’t remove it either. I’ve always been cursed with weak wrists. She’s the one that opens jars for me.
It moves slightly, so it isn’t glued in place. Why would it be so different to the other end?
We've even tried putting the bodyshell end back in and trying to remove the tailgate end first. We were getting that desperate.
PS. My new car is a 2019 B220d W247. Can I change this and, if so, how?
