Hi all,
Just became a MB owner over the weekend (woo-hoo!), and am now proud driver of a 2000 CLK 230 (or W208?).
LOVE IT![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Anyhoo, am considering changing the dash trim which appears to be Burlwood(?) to brushed aluminium and haven't a clue how to go about it. So far I've seen 2 companies that manufacture W208 dash trims; Sherwood and B&I. Neither appear to include the long horizontal strip that goes across the top of the dash in their schematics, and I also don't know whether the trim kit is expected to be stuck over the trim that's there or not. Terrified of getting this wrong and it looking horribily obvious and cheap (although I'm sure there are a number of people who think that I'm crazy for wanting to change it in the 1st place!).
Has anyone done this? Have already tried to search the forums![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Thanks in advance,
AK
