3rd video of the day. We missed you Flexx. Will definitely order it tonight.
My comment before watching the video was that I much prefer the Facelift steering wheel (without led rev counter)...but OMG that looks good.
I've seen someone else do an alcantara cover and it looked dreadful, yours is a big step up 👍
With every new w205 video from you, my bank account just whimpers a little bit 🤣. Super excited about this, great way to get the feeling of a new wheel without the hassle of a full replacement. 👌🏻
Hahahhahaha
Very nicely done!!! I own a 2013 C300 and will definitely install this cover. I totally agree with what you said, I’m very happy with my steering wheel and don’t see the need to spend all that money on a new one.👍
A lot of people want the 2018+ steering wheel but again, if you have the money...do it...but I’m good. 😎🤙🏼
@@TheFlexxGarage it looks so sick
The suede looks clean af!
Hahaha you just answer my question from the other video. Thanks for replying! This is a nice alternative to enhancing the steering wheel. Thanks again :)
See. Told you. lol
Thanks for the video, no need to remove the airbag unless you're going to take the wheel off.
That looks clean and fresh !!! Great job !!
One of the remaining pieces of the car that I need to get done. I currently have the Armytrix catless downpipe as well as a Stage 2 tune and an intake upgrade. I am getting my front resonator removed this week. If anyones interested Ill reply or edit this comment to let you guys know what I think! Great video once again Flexx! Love it!
lemme c
What intake ru running? I have weistec dp’s with bms intakes, stage 2 tune.
Just what i need and was looking for. It seems you had talk to me. Hahahaha. Thanks for this video. Keep on.
You amazing man I love what you do I have c250 2 doors and I have watch all your videos🇨🇦
You’re right about the expense for a new steering wheel. I just bought one (minus the LED’s & Carbon) from CKM for my E350. Cost about $1,500. Looks good though.
That’s cool. No way I’m paying more then $500 for a steering wheel. I rather put that extra money in an exterior mod that will actually get noticed (like wheels, aero parts, suspension) or performance mods. However, I would be more than glad to upgrade to an expensive steering wheel if I received a sponsorship..lol
Looks great!! 🏎
Bro i love it! Something i definitely see doing for my own Benz.. Your the man! 💪🏼
Well done Bro 🤙
Thanks a lot, you’re the best 💪🏾💪🏾❤️❤️
Great job man 💯👍👍👍👍
Thanks!!!
Looks decent, nice job. What happened to the Android screen? Was it no good?
Still testing other products that work with the OEM screen.
Looks clean thanks bro quick question what do you use to clean your interior looks flawless
Just normal chemical brothers interior cleaner spray.
Looks awesome 👍
Ok im gona be honest. Your car is amazing in every way and i love everything you have done BUT your steering wheel looked better stock. Just keeping it real. Much love.
I take it you didn’t watch my newest videos yet? Cause no way I’m keeping the stock steering wheel.
@@TheFlexxGarage I must have missed that one - will check it out... ;) I have an E-class BTW... looking to pimp it out like your c-class.
I wish you could help me with my red battery light problem... no 2013 c250 advice around really on it
2013 is w204... red battery light very likely alternator not charging.. with vehicle running. checked your battery voltage.. it should be more than 13 volts.. if voltage stay the same when you started engine.. then your alternator is not charging.
Hey Flexx, can you show us how to repair a steering wheel that is bubbling or peeling. My 2018 Mercedes GLC300 has this issue just under the the buttons on the right side. I saw someone Plasti Dip theirs but I only trust you. Please help!
This is cool and all, but doesn’t this make the steering wheel to thick?
not really...material is pretty thin
Hey brother will the splitter for the amg package fit for the base model. I have no clue what to do
Don't want to replace the bumper for this. Can u help me out?
Sickest mod yet imo
Please do on the Audi too♥️👌
Nice video. Just curious why did u take the air bag cover out? Thank u
Cause it makes it easier to tuck in the edges
hey flexx, is it safe to remove the airbag if the car has an auxiliary battery installed?
I disconnect the battery and I take out the fuse for the airbag.
Hi, is the steering wheel managed by the main battery? I have a 2016 GLE 450 amg, and I think there are 2 batteries.
Looks excellent, can we see DMP’s 360 panoramic camera??
I don’t think I’ll be installing that. It’s a cool product but the install is pretty involved. I don’t even think I have the skill to do that. Lol
where did you get that side sticker ? I want one for my cla 250
As mentioned in the video, look in the description
Can we get a vid where you show all the mods you did to your car so far?
umm...not going to happen. That will be one long ass video. If you wanna see all the mods, then go watch my W205 mods playlist. Theres over 50 videos of mods done.
Would it be okay to fit without taking the airbag off?
Going to be hard to tuck the cover under the trim without loosening the trim after removing the air bag.
It takes less then 4 minutes to disconnect the battery and unplug the airbag
@@TheRhinoGoss I get that it doesn’t take long to disconnect it’s more the scare for me to do it as i get overly cautious about electrical things
Does this work with the Heated Steering Wheel? Do you think it would cause issues?
Hmmm. Probably does work but the heated steering wheel feature might not work in an optimal way since it’s design to operate with a bare steering wheel and without a cover over it.
I've been told it's no longer available. They did a site redesign (terrible) and had my account deleted. So you'll need to re-register if you've ordered from them prior. Searching for a new cover but so far I've found low quality.
East detailing…. Better quality and options
I got to the point where I just replace the entire steering wheel or use a cover that goes over the stock steering wheel. Cover makes it thicker but I feel like I can grip the wheel better. 🤷🏻♂️
how did you make the white line line up? when I did it I had a part left on one side. Help!
I just lined it up with the center of the wheel and then stretched the rest over the bottom of the wheel to make sure the rest lined up with the flat bottom of the wheel.
If it won’t line up on the top or bottom, then you probably have a defective cover.
Watch the video then ask questions 😂😂😂
what happened to the android screen? any issues with it?
nvm checked your reply to the other comment lol
does the back middle part also tuck in?
Why is your center console open at 7:01? and what is that cable for...?
Damnit. You guys are freakin detectives. Haha. I’m working on a new mod for the OEM screen. Not done yet to share with you guys.
@@TheFlexxGarage i just mounted my 10.1 android tablet with magnets to the original screen and connected via Bluetooth and hid the charging cable behind the center console..
You payed $100 to knit your own steering while cover 😂👌💯
Hey Flexx, does dmp ship to Canada ?
not sure. You would need to check with them. I would assume Yes since they ship worldwide.
Nice mod. I’m not sure if this would help, but you should be able to get just the sequential led lights that match the rpm separately for around £50 or so. They look pretty good in my opinion.
Yeah but the install is a pain in the ass. And if you hiring someone to do it, it’s gonna cost a lot of money anyway.
king of double sided tape
Hahaha. You know it!! I should be sponsored by 3M
@@TheFlexxGarage yep
Cooool cooool cooool ...👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
