Whats up folks! Just wanted to share where I bought my AMG Paddle Shifter P#1712670046, MB Dealer in Chicago, Tel#630-305-4560, Parts Dept. Shipped, No TAX, to your door for under $112. Hope this helps those looking for shifter paddles. Later! Jimmy

Parts Dept is already aware that more LX'ers will be calling, so just give them Part# and you'll be straight.

I got the harness/box from Ray (PLCMAN), cost $55 + $17 ship. Contact info, email: Raymond@wlsmithelectronics

Just about finished. Screwed up in the clock spring, so had to order another. Putting it in today and done. Lesson learned!

When I installed the clock spring back to the column, the clock spring popped. The spring inside disengaged. Bought a new one, which helps for future installs. It came with a locking clip for the clock spring, so I will be able to remove and install without worries.
