#21 of 89 Mats for Third Seat Floor Area by ahalkidis Jul 13, 2001 (3:52 am)
Are mats for the third seat floor area available? Two local dealers say they aren't. Any help would be appreciated. Replies to this message: logbuji (Mar 27, 2005 5:16 pm)

I bought a set of Weathertech mats which can be used with the third row of seats. I bought these from www.clairparts.com. If you don't get them there. Try www.weathertech.com

Hi there;   I am looking to install a Hitch on my ML320 for bike carrying, Any directions? Advise? Does it need to be done at the dealer? Any price figures?   Thanks;   JCC

Nope, If you want to save some bucks you can install it yourself. Find a U-haul rental place on your area and ask for Draw-tite hitch it will cost you around $150.00, but check around maybe you can find some place that are cheaper. I got mine for 96 bucks here at SOcal. You will be surprise that you can do it.Or visit WWW.Drawtite.com.
#25 of 89 Hitch (OEM vs. aftermarket) by hilld Aug 05, 2001 (2:47 pm)
While you might do ok with the aftermarket hitch, there are several advantages with purchasing the OEM version from a dealer, I would suggest clairparts.com (cheaper ~$225.00). One is the warranty issue, if the part is installed on your car still under warranty, the aftermarket parts (original accessories) carry the same warranty as the car. In addition, if there is a structural problem, such as a tweaked frame from towing a heavy load, it should be covered under warranty. Third is that the people at U-haul most of the time don't have a clue of what they are doing. They have air tools and will just hammer away until the parts fit. Fourth is that installation takes less than an our and only a few basic tools (sockets, hammer, screwdrivers). Last but not least is that the factory hitch kit comes with the wiring adapter to convert separate turn signals to trailer type turn/stop in a single light. This adapter plugs directly into the factory wiring harness without any hacking/cutting of wires and includes a flat 6 receptacle that mounts under the bumper. It is of course your choice, but it is easy to install and of good quality.   One last recommendation, purchase a locking pin, it will let you hold on to your bike rack or stinger just a little longer.

#27 of 89 Draw-Tite hitch for the ML... by drew_ Aug 17, 2001 (10:04 am)
Instructions are here. It's a less fancy hitch than the MB OEM hitch, but it is less expensive.: http://www.off-road.com/mbenz/member.html   Do a browser keyword search (Ctrl-F) for "Draw-Tite".   Clairparts.com sells the MB OEM trailer hitch for $250: http://www.clairparts.com/shop/accessories.cfm?do=list&&cat_id=241   Drew Host Vans, SUVs, and Aftermarket & Accessories message boards
#28 of 89 Turned on My fog lamp switch by derekyeu Aug 22, 2001 (10:55 am)
I finally turned on my fog lamp switch in my ML. I installed a pair of H3 in the headlamp housing. Now I have a factory fog lamp for only $40. My dealer charged me half hour of labor to turn on a SWITCH! It probably takes them 5 minutes.   -derek Replies to this message: dlipsius (Mar 28, 2005 7:25 am)
