On this episode of DIY 'N Five (or less), we replace the Wiper Blades (Part # A696 S) on our 2015 GLK 350. Check your owner's manual for correct parts numbers but this process will work with most late model Mercedes. There are two different length arms, the longer o...
DIYN5 - Mercedes GLK/ C-Class 2008-2015 Cabinet Air filter DIY
Просмотров 6542 года назад
Our first in a series of DIYs in Five minutes (give or take), we replace the Cabin air filter in a 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK350. This same procedure will work for a variety of other Mercedes vehicles that use the Bosch 6052C air filter. It should be the same on the C-Class, and GLK Class back to 2008 through 2015, but I am fairly certain at least most Mercedes have their cabinet air filters in the...
🔥 I’ve had black plasti dip on my E39 for like 3 years. I’m getting new tires so I figured I’d finally deep clean my wheels and peel it off and redo them black again. But I’ve always liked gold/metallic bronze wheels, so I searched on Amazon and came across this product. I’m very surprised by how great it looks. Great video! Thanks because I’ll definitely be copping this.
even though its easy to just peel off and fix any imperfections, it sucks cause you have probably spent a whole can on that wheel. not sure how much they cost over there but here its like 25-30 dollars
See this video for the corrrect procedure on 2011 and earlier with pin style wipers. ruclips.net/video/Q_Du23J3E1E/видео.html
This is not the correct procedure for the 2011 and earlier GLK models. they have a pin that u just flip the wiper 180 degrees and it just slides up and off...
Good info thanks. We had a 2010 before the 2015 and I would've sworn the procedure was the same, but thanks for the clarification. Progress I guess
Literally cannot hear the narration over the music
You missed the e89? Arguably the best looking one out of all of them.
Is this bronze identical to duplicolor bronze?
Dude, you barely introduced these cars then thanked us for joining. Where is the history dude?
Nice Video.
Agreed. Dump the generic music, dive a little deeper into the cars, and consider including all the variants (hello? E89?). Disappointing.
Everyone is a critic. I appreciate everyone watching and the comments. I'm an opportunist and film based on what cars are available. This is a hobby and it can be difficult to find cars to film in my area. If you don't see your favorite car, then I suggest you bring it over and then I can film it and then you will have your video, or better yet try producing your own content. There is an open invitation for anyone with an E89, or other Z4 to bring it over for filming, but unfortunately, the other cars are no longer available for filming an update.
Can’t hear what you’re saying cos of the music ffs .
hey what kind of gun is that you using with spray can
Nice video. Next time you're at the Zentrum, reach out to the Sandlapper chapter and we'll get you an E89 to film. You can't leave out the best looking one!
You forgot the 2.8 Coupe. A wonderful GT with lager side mirrors and a more comfotable ride than MZ3.
Your editing is terrible, the background music is just foreground noise and where is the E89 model recognised as their best Z model, especially the 35i. This video is absolute crap.
maybe lower the music volume so we can hear you
BMW Z4 35is?
Where's the E89 Z4!!! One of the nicest convertibles ever designed (with the roof up or down)
Obviously, everyone has their favorite, but there wasn't one available to us at the time of shooting this video. If I had had access to a silver E89, and a G29 it would have been a perfect day, but we had to shoot based on the Z8's availability.
Have one, but here, far away in Argentina😂
On my driveway ;)
Great video Jon!
Thank you, sir! Wish we could've gotten your Coupe there for this shoot.
Where's the e89 hardtop Z4? One of my favorites.
Very true. I came real close to getting an e89 when I was shopping for my E86. Great cars, but we didn't have one available to us on the day of this video shoot.
Can you clean your wheels when they get dirty after the dip is on them
That particular shade seemed pretty loud. I watched an older video on DYC where Foz did a bronze wheel set in dip, but it was way deeper, richer and more subtle. I like the bronze on your wagon, but I don’t love it. And I don’t love the bronze kidney trim on the grill. I would suggest maybe a nice colorful tint and some dark bronze wheels.
Thanks for the comment. Yes, the color I think has to grow on you. I initially really liked it, but like you just didn't feel it was what I was looking for. Plus I sold the HRE's and am back to the original Anthracite colored wheels with black grill. Bronze is a hard color to match to less than bright colors I think, but the good news is, custom pain blending is a thing and you can create just about any color you want. If you haven't already, I'd appreciate a subscribe and follow to the channel.
Just ordered the new color, brass monkey. It seems to give a shade of the bronze when the light hits. Will update!
@@KVS11100can’t wait to see it!
Awesome tips in your video...thank you! Any experience on how long this will last with a good appearance?
I was actually surprised at how durable the finish was. I am far from the extreme end of things but after 2 months, the finish was holding up very well. I would never say that it is something for the long haul, but I'd think it would last for a temporary mod, or one you are willing to maintain and touch up. It's super easy to reapply and much cheaper than powder coating. If you haven't already, I'd appreciate a subscribe and follow to the channel.
Your youtube name sounds like im saying tachycardia
I've been called much worse and am generally pretty tacky. Hoping to bring more tech to the channel in the near future, I can't help the tackiness, however, so apologies ahead of time. If you haven't already, I'd appreciate a subscribe and follow to the channel.
I've had black PlastiDip on two sets of wheels for about 8 years at least. It's not perfect, but doesn't seem exactly temporary. The cost to powder-coat a wheel was more than the wheel. So I turned to PlastiDip as a temporary solution. 8 years later, it's still on there. Like I said, not perfect. But If I was going to spend any more time and money on the finish, I'd possibly peel off the Dip and paint with rattle cans, since the wheels aren't for show anyway.
Thanks for the comment. Yes it's far more durable than I expected, and with the right cleaning and care products, it will last much longer than this novice expected. The only thing I worried about really was curb-rash, or debris hitting it and messing up the finish, but as you say much cheaper to retreat than to respray a powder coat. If you haven't already, I'd appreciate a subscribe and follow to the channel.
Great vid! I've done plenty of plastidip and hyperdip on emblems & trim over the years but am yet to do a set of wheels, so research on hyperdip wheels brought me here. Nice work, looks great!
Thanks.
I am thinking of doing my rose gold rims this color
Howling does the hypedip last?
@christopherthomas5056 I've had the hyperdip on my emblems and chrome trim for about 13 months with no chipping or peeling. The gloss finish is gone, so it has a matte finish on it now. I do put some water based tire dressing on it that brings the gloss back for a while, usually until it rains. I'm in Florida, so the sun beats it up, but I don't get snow or any severe cold conditions. It's some though stuff! I wash it every week.
Thanks. It's a great product and I almost wish I had more projects I could use it for. If I had a little more time, energy, and funds I might try to see how my touring would look with a pearled white finish, but that obviously is a story for another day. If you haven't already, I'd appreciate a subscribe and follow to the channel.
have you fixed the steering issue? interesting to hear what you have done or will do
Great video man, keep it coming!!!
