Thanks. It has black interior. I wanted Espresso Brown but it was a little harder to find.

What is the your trunk mat part number? Mine for the 550e doesn’t fit as nice as yours. So clearly need to figure at which mat I need as my dealer is still researching…thinking maybe I can help them out. See what mine looks like.

Took less than an hour to do. The only thing not really talked about is tapping the mirror will cause the radar detector to stay on at most 15 minutes after turning the vehicle off. I’m averaging about 8 minutes. Not sure why sometimes it’s shorter then 8 minutes and not sure why sometimes it’s longer then 8 minutes. Maybe the Proximity to the key or my phone, time of day? Lighting conditions? Not sure. But it works and I’m good with it.

Thanks! Yes, definitely cleaner than having the cords.

Thanks. It's 20% in the rear and back doors, and 30% driver and front passenger. Here in the EU they call it 80% and 70% respectively because they go by percent tint instead of percent pass through.

Thanks! I was thinking 30% on fronts. This confirmed it. I think it’s nice to have a difference btw front and back like you did.

I'll be doing the same. Oxide is such a nice color and additional contrast with darkened windows makes it really pop. Gorgeous!
