#50 of 89 Thule Roof Rack ski/bike/etc by chumsae Feb 02, 2003 (3:20 pm)
Compared MB, Yakima and Thule and decided on the latter. - couldn't get any good info on the MB rack   but I believe it's a Thule. The basic MB rack   (consisting of cross bars and connectors to    the MB side rails) is listed at $249. - the Thule basic rack is listed at $199 with   4 lock cylinders. - Yakima makes a round cross bar system that    looks to be decent quality and a little cheaper    than Thule, but I think Thule looks better,    at least on an ML. - I bought Thule from Carlos Binns in   Colorado, carlitosway83attbi.com     754xt (=cross bars, connectors, 4 locks)    list $199 Carlo's price $155      726 Pull Top (holds 6 prs skis or 4 snowboards     or any combination like 3 prs skis and 2     snowbaords)     list $159 Carlo's price $118      2 lock cylinders for the 726 were $17      870 Fairing (to keep down wind noise)     list $45 Carlo's price $37   The Pull Top, as the name suggests, allows you to slide the ski carrier out over the side of the ML to make loading/unloading easier (and it helps keep your clothes cleaner.)   The fairing does a nice job of quieting down the wind noise to a reasonable level. It's not perfect but we find our ML rack to be much quieter than our other Thule system, without fairing, on a Saab.

'02 Bi-xenon headlight is the best mod i did to my 2000 ML320 it worth every penny I spent. I feel safe at night ,the light beam pattern is so wide and clear, purchase it for $1,300.00.
#52 of 89 Xenon by mvhanson Feb 07, 2003 (9:29 pm)
biker5 Thanks, I picked up my 03-ML320 on Sat the 1st. I took to heart the recommendations and went with the one with bi-xenon's. So far have not driven out on the open road at night, but from what I can tell in town at night, I will like them. It was nice to get back to the ML after driving a rental Xterra. mvhanson
#53 of 89 How to program/reprogram ML remotes? by cobra801 Feb 10, 2003 (2:56 pm)
I own a 2000 ML430. I am considering getting another remote (original ML but for another vehicle) from a friend. Does anyone know how to program/reprogram this remote? I have been told that this cannot be done since all remotes are 'hardcoded' at the factory. (Same message - #124 of Meet the Members.) Replies to this message: kooter (Mar 16, 2005 5:21 am)

#55 of 89 Mercedes ML 320 In-Dash Control Unit by drewniany Jan 07, 2004 (10:13 pm)
I have a '99 ML 320 and I would like to install the original in dash phone unit. From reading my Mercedes Owners manual as well as the original car brochure I understand, that every M-Class is factory prepared for portable cell phone and In-dash control unit system. Here are my questions:   How difficult is to install the unit? Has anyone done it? Does the installation has to be performed by Mercedes dealer in order to have the phone integrated with the radio and the sound system or anything else I am not aware of? How do I activate the phone since I already have a local service provider? Is this done by a dealer and do I have an additional fee for the service? I also understand that I need an additional hand held unit needed to program the In-dash unit in my car. What else I need to purchase in order to have this unit fully operational?   I appreciate your assistance, Sincerely, Richard S. Mleczko
#56 of 89 M-Class Roof Rack and Clamshell by willchris Mar 17, 2004 (10:53 am)
I recently sold my 2000 ML320 and decided to keep the pricey MB cross bar roof rack system and cartop carrier since it was like new and didn't add to the trade in price. Now I have this thing, it fits all M Class (but no other) and the market appears small. Any ideas of a marketplace?

Replying to: cobra801 (Feb 10, 2003 2:56 pm) I just purchased a 2001 ML 430 and it only came with 1 remote. The dealer is getting me a new one but they told me that it had to come from Germany. I got the felling that they are difficult to program.

Replying to: ahalkidis (Jul 13, 2001 3:52 am) I just have a question about your jump seats. If you bought them after-market, do you remember how much they cost? If not, as an option do you remember how much that cost? They are now longer available from Mercedes. I have found a pair on ebay, I am just wondering what was their original value.   Thanks
#59 of 89 Re: Turned on My fog lamp switch [derekyeu] by dlipsius Mar 28, 2005 (7:25 am)
Replying to: derekyeu (Feb 01, 2001 4:39 pm) Well, this was great to read. I had just decided yesterday to install the bulbs and see what happens. So, they need to be switched on by the dealer????? That does not seem like a bad deal considering the cost of installing a lamp set. I already have a set of PIAA driving lamps installed on my bar, but are for long distance sight. I will get with the dealer and get that switch turned on!!!! thanks.
