leather door inserts... how are they attached?

the ml63, and gl's all have leather inserts on the sides of the door while ml350, cdi, and 500's have nothing.

i can't stand how cheap the door looks so i want to add the leather inserts.

does anyone know how they are attached?

How much?

How much are these inserts? I, too, think they look great. Those hard plastic inserts look ridiculous on a Mercedes.

i've done some group buys before for my audi and bmw so i don't mind doing it again.

what i'd need first is a show of hands who would be interested, and in which one... stock, or brabus.

i've got a feeling the brabus one is going to be even more expensive than the oem one from mbenz.

i'll take the picture of the brabus one to some local upholstery places and see if they can match the same style as the brabus ones.

feel free to cross post this on mbworld as i don't have an account there.

If the price is remotely reasonable, you can count me in on a group buy, too.
