I would love to see a section with content covering aftermarket equipment.

We have long considered an aftermarket and/or performance section. What specific types of aftermarket equipment are you interested in? Interior enhancements(cup holders/sheepskins), handling tweaks(sport springs/shocks/anti-roll bars/aftermarket wheels/tires), power products(chips/exhaust/turbo kits), appearance items(euro-headlights/spoilers/window tint) We already have a keyless entry system available for most mercedes models made in the last 12 years. This system does not interfere with your warranty, ties into existing systems with no cutting/drilling/trauma, and instalable by a non-professional. Pricing is yet to be finalized but it should be in the $200-$250 range tops. In addition to this aftermarket/performance section we would have a reader/viewer "featured car" or customer car showcase. If anyone has any specific interest in any of these ideas feel free to post your thoughts.

Thanks,
Lee

You mentioned that you have an after market remote keyless entry system for MB made in the last 12 years?

Can you give me more information? I have an 88 300E W124.

Thanks in advance.

Walden,

Regarding springs
All of the aftermarket specialists(for Mercedes) have springs. They are costly though and might even be the same product as the HR or Eibach springs. I bought a set of Renntech Springs for 500 dollars and they turned out to be the exact same spring from HR which lists for 280.
My personal preference is with the HR's. They ride quality is very good and hasn't been compromised. If you feel that those springs don't lower the car enough you can also change your spring pads to a lower size.
Where do you live? There is a aftermarket store in Fremont California called Streetwize that specializes in high end cars. (510)623-8898.

ELEE,
I installed another keyless today in a 124. They work really well. If you will register, I will e-mail you the catalog when it's available.
