before they used to call it orthopedic backrest, but later changed it to multi-contour backrest. they must have realised that clinical term "orthopedic" deals with broken bones and other gore things 
that's right, these new seat even got 4 small fan underneath which you can adjust the speed 3 way. this one i don't understand the purpose...?

Your chassis is really not very interesting 
Thank goodness for that! I will sleep comfortably at night knowing you feel this way about my chassis.

Hi there
Right now I am replacing all leather parts in my Sl500
To be honest I found out that ONLY the seats are made from leather
and the rest of the car is all imitation leather !!
The only other parts that are from leather too are the two parts on the door on the left and on the right door (the piece with little holes in it)
Also the steering wheel might be made of leather.
The back of the chair is "fake" Also the part that covers the softtop is fake too !!
In case anyone of you wants to change his "old" type chairs into new type just let me know !! I know how to do it !!
Regards from Holland
Hans

Besides my whining I do have a real complaint about my seats. They have little to no side bolstering. If I ever take a hard right turn and the driver's door opens, I'll be outta there on a tangent.
And don't go telling me that wearing seat belts will solve this problem. The only difference would be my arms and legs would be hanging out of my car instead of me rolling into a ditch without my car.

Hello,
Just a suggestion on how to maintain leather seats on an MB, cause they usually come with dye colors, , wipe with warm water, make sure your terry cloth is just wet enough to wipe on the leather, move only on one direction and after all of this, apply canolly hide care, its a cream , so far its been the best in the market, I have literally tried all brands and make and the only one that shows real result was canolly, the canolly plant shut down 2002, but there are still a lot of jars out there for sale.
will Defintely make your car leather seat softer and smells really good after a day or two of applying.
