[kaiserh]

I didn't know where else to post this

My Questions is ,will 1999 c280 car cover fit a 1997 c280,are the side mirrors same size ?

I would really appreciate if anyone can answer me this ASAP, my car is 1997 c280,found a good used 1999 c 280 car cover, I want to buy it

thanks a lot

I am pretty sure they are all the same outside shape for all years in regard to the standard mirror. Until someone else can confirm, look at pictures posted here for people's different model years. As long as they have not upgraded to blinking mirrors, etc., that should give you a good indication. Also, you could check the part numbers at the Russian part diagram site for the outside covers of the mirror to see if they are the same. A little work with search function here should give you confidence in your order. You could also search some websites for Mercedes car covers. If they list the same part number for all years, then you should be OK.

FYI, same part number listed for the outside mirror cover on the 99 230K and a regular 230, so I think you are safe.

thank you,yes thats I have been doing,OEM car cover say 94-99,fits all of these years for c 280.

I am going to pick it up later today,I will also match the mirrors when I get there.it is a 30 mile drive.

What kind of material is it made of?

[kaiserh]

I am not sure what the material is,but it is made by Noah, and it is working out great,my car looks great,no more dirts,and shine like the day I waxed it.

here is more about the cover

That is the same material used in the one sold by Mercedes.

its also time for me to get a cover to. Sadly my car is outside all the time w/o any cover but i drive it every day (weekly washing helps keep it nice). i tried the Search feature but didnt come up with any outside this thread.

i live in seattle = LOTS of rain. What car cover would you guys recomend for around $150. i found two but the second is a little too pricey i think

$169
