My back seats have been down for a couple of weeks since the youngest boy used it to move his stuff back home. Is there a place to stow the headrests? I just thought it was odd that Mercedes wouldn’t have come up with a means of stowing the headrests like you can in the wagons. The ML is parked

It is. Whatever person designed those holders in the dash should be soaked down with hundreds of gallons of cold beverages alternated with hundreds of gallons of boiling hot beverages. I would never use one of them simply on principle, as they look totally unstable as it is. I don’t have a rear

The W210 holder will hold my jumbo sized insulated cups without issue. Smaller stuff not so well, it seems. I just have to make sure I stick a napkin or something in the bottom so when there is condensation it doesn’t drip into the console. -D > On Sep 7, 2019, at 10:30 AM, Rick Knoble via Me

I think it’s worse. Those cup holders in the dash can’t handle anything taller than about 4”-5”. Otherwise they do get launched onto the floor. I’m thinking that’s much of the reason behind my “java” carpet. Dang, three passes with an extraction steam cleaner and it’s still there…I guess I could
