Hello everyone, I'm defecting from the Noble forum having picked up my Noble replacement, an SL 500.
I just parted with my beloved C43 AMG too which has been a great car. If the Sl is as good, I'll be well pleased. I have 3 questions.
(1) I have a Samsung D500, can a replacement phone cradle be obtained?
(2) Does anyone know where I can buy aftermarket chrome/stainless wing/bonnet grills?
(3)I would also like to replace the disc changer for a 12 disc model, I have an Alpine one but the connections are different, any suggestions?

Thanks in advance, Dave.

1 - I've previously swapped Nokia cradles on a merc Sclass. You need to look into it carefully though, because although you may expect to pay £100 for the cradle and possible new lead, 2 hours labour etc. What you won't be expecting is a new software licence at £300ish on top as well.

2 - Don't know.

3 - Don't know, but I'd suspect it would be hassle due to the command screen only being set up to control six discs.

1) Mercedes don't do Samsung cradles
2) www.mercedesperformance.co.uk/ or Kahn do some wing fin estentions for around £500
3) Wouldn't bother if I were you, I'd be tempted to keep it all original.
