Mercedes original part number (for my 4WD version) is included in the video.

Just mounted my mud flaps, very easy and looks better and will help with less debris on the side. Thanks for the guidance! Much appreciated!

[@swede-365]

Glad to help. Did you figure out what function the remaining screws had?

[@wendyriach4921]

Great video, we are ordering our mudflaps today so they will be ready to go for our NZ summer.

[@swede-365]

Thank you and enjoy wonderful NZ 😊

I have a question: Have you taken your Crossover to hot (temperature) places? Do you think you need a habitation Aircon unit fitted? or does the extractor fan system work ok and the vans Aircon? Also, can you tell me which levelling system you had installed on your Crossover?. Thank you for your help.

[@swede-365]

I have air conditioning mounted (Truma) but not tested in real hot climate yet. The extractor is good when off grid but if it’s really hot only air conditioning helps. Have experience from the same solution in earlier cars. I have Goldschmitt levelling system which works really good. I have had both E&P and Alko HY4 on earlier cars but this one works much smoother and is the only one approved to use for changing tyres etc because of a safety valve.

[@peterlethbridge7859]

Thank you for the information. Where is your A/C system fitted? I notice that it's not a roof mounted system. Thank you again. You've been a great help. I'm having mine delivered in September and looking to see what additions options to have fitted. Best regards Peter

@peterlethbridge7859 it’s on the roof, exchanged the hatch in the bedroom for a Truma AC as I don’t need any hatch there anyway

Nice improvement

[@swede-365]

Thank you 🙏

Hello, thank you very much for the great video. Have you had any experience of driving with the new front mudflaps? Do they interfere with steering? How is it offroad ? Thanks for your feedback!

[@swede-365]

No problems at all, it’s original accessory. Offers good protection so can highly recommend it.

Hej hur mycket lastkapacitet har du i bilen när du är klar för resa? Och hur mycket kan du belasta garagegolvet,vikt?

[@swede-365]

Jag brukar ha ca 100-150 kg tillgodo när den är fullastad. Då har jag en rätt tung elcykel och fulla tankar fast åker ensam. Golvet är förstärkt i min och klarar 450 kg.

[@swede-365]

Jag har dessutom både AC och hydrauliska stödben monterade.

[@stellasbay8345]

Many thanks for this simple DYI tip! I noted your hydraulic support legs, may I ask what brand are they and how much ground clearance do you lose by having them installed?

[@swede-365]

It’s Goldschmitt and don’t loose any ground clearance as the are over the drive axles etc

[@stellasbay8345]

@@swede-365 Many thanks! Are you happy with them or have you had any issues?

[@swede-365]

They work really well! Much better than E&P and HY4 that I have had on previous cars. Smoother and more intelligent auto levelling. I have the long version in front and extensions on the rear. Sometimes I must use extra plates between them and the ground because of the high ground clearance but mostly it works fine as it is. @@stellasbay8345
