    Just want to say here for those of you who can’t get your headrest out, there is a U clip, very thin metal clip on the far left of you are facing the front of the car in the back of the seat, it is seated on a black clip that holds the headrest bar… it pings off with a screwdriver…. Your headrest will then be free to release with the button. Thanks for this video, made the job stress free.

      Really really important step that I think the video missed! Thanks! - One question though, how do I reinstall the clip?!

      Removed the back panel. Couldn't remove headrest. Cussed all German engineers back to the third Reich. Watched video again, found this comment. Removed headrest like a pro, fixed both seats in under an hour. Promised to buy this guy a beer.

      @@timmottram9307to reinstall the u shaped clip: use two cable ties fully tightened on the uprights of the clip halfway up. Guide one cable tie around the back of the plastic post. Align the bottom of the clip in the slot and push the clip home. Cut cable ties as short as you can and leave them for the next guy who will be amazed with your problem solving skills.

    Did the job on a 2014 E400 with electric head rest adjustment today. To release the adjustment arm from the left hand seat post: use a thick piece of string and pull it down the shaft on the inside of the plastic clip using the vertical slots to pull it down. It will fill the recessed section of the shaft and allow the headrest to be pulled free. I did this with the headrest halfway up its travel.

    Can't believe how I was struggling until finding this. I have an electric headrest so removing had an extra step but all good. How'd you put the u shaped spring back in after?

    Got it , it took some time and almost lost it about 45 minutes in cause of the headrest but sure enough it all worked out and its beautiful now. The trim was a Pain in the A&$ as well but between the headrest gicing a little trouble and trim it was fairly easy. Took about a hour or so.

    I’ve tried everything but I can’t actually get the headrest out. It sounds like it’s clicking on something or locking trying to get the headrest out. Is there something I’m not doing? I got the rubber clip out at 1:51 of your video but they aren’t going out at all. Thanks for any advice in advance

    I went in the a MB dealer today. They wanted $430 for the whole part. Online I found the whole part for $215. But only the chrome lever/handle was broken. Why replace the whole thing? I found the lever for $15. Big difference. This is a great video. 👍

    Hey man thanks for the vid. I did my 2014 C 250 coupe a year ago and was almost the same procedure but did not have to release the seat cover to access the two bolts. When I got in there the plastic barrel section of the handle that wraps around the hinge was broken in half but still there so I used blue low stick painters tape to make a mold then a slow set , high strength 2 part epoxy ( gray JB weld ) to glue it back together without removing the whole assembly from the seat - had to release the cable so no tension though. Overnight cure and another coating for strength and its been working fine though it only gets used maybe twice per month . The part is just cheap plastic so if I do replace it will prolly coat with epoxy to give it some extra strength . Would have been nice if MB handle supplier had used 20% glass fiber in the part to give it enough strength .

    • @MacBerci
      @MacBerci  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah these are a nightmare from merc and the passanger side always breaks as used the most of convertibles and coupes ! I guess theyre designed to break so merc can charge £400+ for the assembly ! Thanks for watching and the tip much appreciated 💪🏻

    Hey thanks for the video.
    So with my Merc when i pull the handle the seat is not automatically going forward as it use to, to make space to get in the back. The passenger sear is functioning as it should only the driver side is giving problem. It could be a malfunction or just a matter of wire unplug. Can you please guide me

    • @MacBerci
      @MacBerci  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Thanks for watching !! So i would start with removing the cover on the back of the seat once u do that all the wires attached to the handle and the actual locks which hold the seat in place will be exposed ! I would recommend inspecting the release wires first if all in order and moving when handle is pulled mu next stop would be examining the locks under the seat to which the wires go to maybe the locks are just seized as mostly when letting passangers in the back they would use passanger side ! If u struggling let me know i will do a video on my seat to guide you through it if needed ! Hope it helps
