You are a CRAZY man Chris!! Most of us "normal" men wouldn't take on such a mammoth scary task to swap out a dash that is perfectly fine, just for a two-tone color effect. But you make it looks so easy. I would have freaked out and broken half a dozen tabs in the first 15mins! Nice to see your "quality management kitty" checking out your work!!

[@CKMCardesign]

He LOVES AMGs!!! 😀

[@NBMSCH]

honestly, the black piano looks more elegant and much better in my opinion.. but also the carbon fiber is cool!

[@CKMCardesign]

Agree a bit actually.

[@jefgoemans1802]

I agree, in a C or E class the carbon would fit better, it just doesnt do it for the S class in my opinion but it still looks ok👍🏻

[@3litepker]

Yeah it would make sense if it was a S500 or something to keep the piano black trim but its an AMG! It must have carbon fibre in my opinion, EVERYWHERE that makes sense to have it. The feeling is totally different as soon as you enter.

[@CKMCardesign]

@@3litepker Agree.

[@Nakestra]

I agree

[@amchoo_929]

I so love watching this guy work on his S63.The fact that he has all the parts laying aroud like the steering wheel,door cards, and what not just waiting for him to put them on the car is amazing,cant wait to see what this car is gonna look like when you are done installing all the parts.Looking forward to next video,nice work man!👍

Excellent job! Really like your W166 Command conversion to the GLE screen , however I'm too scared to do it myself. Mine doesn't have the rear entertainment but it still looked as if it was too much of a hassle. I'm currently looking into buying a W221 S63 , how much of it do you think could be converted to a W222 (interior-wise). I love its' exterior , it's a timeless design yet the dash bugs me a bit and a W222 is way out of my budget.

[@CKMCardesign]

None I would say! Best option you have is the Android system!
