Whilst we have previously retrofitted many Parktronic systems to various different Mercedes using all genuine MB parts we were recently tasked to not only add Parktronic but also include Park Assist so that the car would steer itself into a parking space. After some research it became apparent that no extra parts were required, just […]
We now have stock of a unique new device that will allow owners of all A class, B class, CLA class and GLA class Mercedes to use Apple CarPlay on their existing radio and screen. By simply plugging this device into the OBD socket (located just above the brake pedal) and waiting less than two […]
The Mercedes S class is a very high spec car but not everything comes as standard! The options list is huge and often a selection of products is offered as a package leaving it difficult to get ‘everything’ required at a sensible price. A recent customer had just brought his new S class and with […]
Another existing customer that also owns a Mercedes wanted a reverse camera added to his VW Golf. Rather than “stick” a camera to the tailgate we decided to use integrated camera in a motorised handle that ‘pops out’ when reverse gear is selected. A dedicated module was installed behind the radio to allow an integrated image […]
After finding us on Google, a recent customer contacted us to discuss his 2011 E class Cabriolet that had been rebuilt with all facelifted parts. Because the car didn’t ‘recognise’ these newer parts, none of the lights worked so we were commissioned to get the car and the new lights to ‘talk’ to each other. This […]
Recently, a specialist car tuning company that we have dealt with recommended a customer of theirs to us to look at an issue that was causing them concern. This particular C63 was being tuned and lightened for maximum performance. Part of this work involved removing the rear seats and the relevant seat belts. After doing […]
As Mercedes dealers also sell Smart cars we were asked by one of our regular dealers to retrofit Heated Seats to a Smart ForFour. Although we prefer to do this work in our own workshop, for logistical reasons we agreed to do this work on the dealers site within their workshops. Half a day later […]
An existing customer of ours, who has always owned Mercedes cars, has recently purchased a new 4 door Mini Cooper. He had been asking around various places to get a reversing camera retrofitted to the Mini, but wasn’t having much luck. Having previously had a camera installed by us on his Mercedes, he thought he’d […]
We received a call from a dealer just before Christmas. The car had been delivered to a customer, however the customer was under the impression it was coming with Ambient Lighting as standard. Ambient lighting uses hundreds of tiny LED’s around the car to create a coloured glow. These all need to be installed along […]
Not long after we completed the interior trim change of the C 63 AMG S, we had another call from a different dealer with a similar problem. This time on a brand new C300h. Having the previous job fresh in our minds, we were able to quickly research and order the correct colour parts. However, the trim […]
