    It’s not a tidy finish you have creases in the leather, I gave my car to be done professionally cost is £180 but at least it will be like factory, I appreciate the video but not impressed with your finish, I mean every time you sit in the car you have to look at it

    Any further info on getting the airbag logo black? If battery disconnected, can it just pry off? I’ve got a replacement emblem (same size with 3M adhesive ) already done black to stick on. 2014 A45

    • @TheFlexxGarage

      I spray dyed my entire airbag from brown to black. Including the star logo.

    How did you paint the emblem? My chrome has come off and it looks very bad need to fix this any ideas. I went to the Mercedes service center and they told that the emblem cannot be removed as it is with the airbag and if you want to replace it can only be done by replacing the air bag. Please give me an idea or a way to fix this problem 🙏
    Edit: the car I have is an e250 2016 w212

    • @AleemZafar
      @AleemZafar 4 роки тому

      Not kinda hard. Peel off the chrome, sand it, mask all the surrounding areas, buy a really good quality paint & finish it off with a matte or clear coat to make sure the paint does not peel off. Sometimes even after peeling off the chrome the paint won’t stick to the surface as well so you need to prepare it

      You can lose some of the data on the trip computer. Your odometer in the cluster will maintain its reading, but some data such as MPG might be reset.

    • @TheFlexxGarage
      @TheFlexxGarage  11 місяців тому +1

      You can but it requires more work to tuck in the edges. Pretty sure there’s videos on UA-cam showing this. It’s not on a benz but you’ll get the point.

    I just ordered one of these and don't know how you did it with the steering wheel still on the car. I'm thinking of removing mine to do this. Also your kit seems to have more material to work with than mine it took for ever just to get this thing on the wheel. I am not sure if it is because I went with the all alcantara wheel. Also the benz logo looks sick in black was thinking of removing mine and spraying it gloss black.

    • @TheFlexxGarage
      @TheFlexxGarage  2 роки тому

      So on this car, I did have more material to work with. On my more recent video where I did it on my 2016 c300…I did all alcantara with white center stripe…and it was a battle cause it was less material to work with.

    Hey flex after I took the airbag out and put it back it gave me a code for the airbag. Did I just put it back incorrectly or is there a reason for this? The horn seems to work fine.

    • @TheFlexxGarage

      Don’t know. If you didn’t disconnect the battery, then you made the car think it had an airbag fault when you removed it.
