These are plastic with the icons. It looks like the switch assembly comes off 
the airbag assembly cover and I presume the little buttons just pop in the cover

How do the steering wheel buttons look? Been thinking about replacing mine but 
not really wanting to spend the money on a complete new switch assembly from 
MB, since the switches work fine it's just the rubber buttons that are worn.

Re: [MBZ] 2007 R350 - 19k miles - $6,400

[dan penoff.com via Mercedes]

Could have been, I don’t recall. I avoided it like the plague, but I wasn’t 
even around during the time she had it other than for occasional visits. My 
brother would take care of it when necessary, but the dealer was pretty much 
right down the street from her house, so it went there for everything.

I just recall my brother making the rounds of parts places in town trying to 
find a battery for it. Apparently, the battery was a weird group number/size 
that no one carrier. I think he ended up just going to the dealer and getting 
one.

When she was trying to get rid of it I asked my boys if either of them were 
interested. When I told them what it was I got a very definite “NO!”

Re: [MBZ] 300D 2.5 no glow/no start

[Dimitri Seretakis via Mercedes]

The glow light is not coming on so it’s almost certainly a glow issue.

Re: [MBZ] 2007 R350 - 19k miles - $6,400

[dan penoff.com via Mercedes]

Like when my Mom stopped driving and she couldn’t give away the little Daiwoo 
she had with 5k miles on the clock (it was at least 5 years old, if I recall 
correctly.)

Everyone knew she drove like a bat out of Heck and thrashed that car to its 
limits. Not to mention none of the grandkids wanted to be seen in or driving a 
Daiwoo. She offered it to me for one of my boys to drive but I was able to 
dodge that bullet by suggesting that the transport costs to ship it weren’t 
worth it.

I think my brother ended up selling the car on CL. I seem to recall it being a 
challenge for him to find a buyer.

[Allan Streib via Mercedes]
