yep thats the one
Found these ac vents from china and installed them recently. It required some epoxy and dremeling to make the final product. Dresses up the interior a bit, however I am kind of mixed on them and not sure if I will keep them. What do you guys think, do they work well with the rest of the center dash or do they look out of place? Functionally they feel higher quality then the original but the air direction angle is a bit constricted.
It's hard to tell from the image, but can the vents be adjusted for air flow and be angled or rotated like the stockers?Found these ac vents from china and installed them recently.

The angle can be adjusted of course and they can be turned 90 degrees so the center knob can be vertical or horizontal but the air flow cannot be adjusted.It's hard to tell from the image, but can the vents be adjusted for air flow and be angled or rotated like the stockers?
Also any additional info as to how you actually did the swap or install?
I think it looks cool, it's different.
Personally the S550 HVAC vents are goofy looking in the S550 interior. They're basically parts bin vents and are the design of the same vents that first showed up in the F-Series product line - like very early 2000's.... To me, our HVAC vents just never looked like they belonged in the S550 interior, like an afterthought.
In that case they're even worse than the Mercedes ones I was talking about. At least in the Mercedes you can adjust the flow by rotating the knob.The angle can be adjusted of course and they can be turned 90 degrees so the center knob can be vertical or horizontal but the air flow cannot be adjusted.
now those are cool!
Yep...like 'em!..... Do you have the link , please?The angle can be adjusted of course and they can be turned 90 degrees so the center knob can be vertical or horizontal but the air flow cannot be adjusted.
They were sold as a set of three vents on AliExpress with led inside for ambient light, I asked the seller for just 2 without the lights. You have to trim the length of these and then you have to glue the edge of the vent itself to the original ring bezel. I also used some electrical tape on the edge of the center dash piece so that the vents would not wiggle since they do not have little fins that keeps them as stable as the stock ones. Not too complicated of an install. Let me know if you have any questions or want a link to the parts.

No doubt...I think it looks pretty cool, but just not my cup of tea. That doesn't mean you should remove itGlad to hear some of you like it, I ordered a set of oem vents that I will probably put back eventually and have these around if I get bored. Sometimes you gotta try mods to see if you'll actually like them
