Most people will end up at their local dealership, ordering parts from them. That is of course, after the smelling salts kick in from passing out when shown the cost. It isn't cheap to buy parts from any car dealership, let alone, Mercedes dealership. There are better places to buy your parts that will not send you into sticker shock.
Another, idea that struck me. Heated seats. This is actually a fairly simple idea. You can pull them from any factory-equipped car. Try the local spring lake salvage yard. Just make sure they can bench test them before you walk out the door. You'll want the thermostat control with this, which can be mounted under the tail for adjustment while riding. Basically, heated seats are no more then a heating pad element that sits under the upholstery, a top the padding. The heating elements average about 100-140 degrees F. I did a search for "Upholstery Heating Elements" and came up with some good results and even installation instructions and tutorials for various seats. Both OEM and retro fits.
car recycling Recycling parts can save a lot of space when it comes to landfilling, and why should something that can be used again be thrown away? That is money being thrown away. Also, the other reason why you should consider used car parts is that you are purchasing quality parts that were manufactured by their original manufacturer. Recyclers have the skill when it comes to determining damaged parts and those that can be reused.
When you recycle cars, you have less mass going to our landfills (who hasn't seen a car crushed into a tiny square on TV) by taking any parts from the interior or exterior of the car that have the potential to be used on an existing vehicle. This helps people who need reasonably priced car parts and helps the environment at the same time.
