Jaronx Mercedes-Benz Steering Wheel Button Replacement Kit — Black 12‑Piece OEM-fit ABS, Laser‑Etched

Jaronx replacement steering wheel buttons for Mercedes-Benz restore worn or peeling controls with a durable, OEM-fit black kit.

When the original soft-touch covers on Mercedes-Benz steering wheel buttons wear, peel or become sticky, these Jaronx replacement button modules provide a long-lasting, precisely molded alternative. Designed to match the original part geometry and illumination paths, the kit replaces aging A2185400162 / A2185400262-style buttons across many Mercedes models, delivering a solid feel and improved resistance to scratches and fingertip wear.

Will these buttons fit my Mercedes-Benz model?

These steering wheel buttons are made to replace the OE-style parts used on many Mercedes-Benz compact and midsize models from the early-to-mid 2010s. They are compatible with a specific set of model years and part numbers, so checking your original OE number is important before ordering.

• Compatible models include A Class W176 (2013–2015) and B Class W246 (2011–2014).
• Also fit C Class W204 (2011–2014), E Class W207/W212 (2011–2016 / 2013–2015).
• Works with GLK X204 (2012–2015), CLA W117 (2012–2014), GLA W156 (2013–2016).
• Fits CLS W218 (2012–2013), SLK/SLC W172 (2011–2015). Not compatible with ML/GL/GLE/GLS models.

How do these replacements compare to the original buttons?

Unlike the factory soft-touch coating that can peel or become gummy over time, Jaronx uses sturdy ABS with a protective finish to resist scratches and daily wear. The parts are full replacement modules rather than thin overlays, so they keep their shape and function when pressed.

• Made from premium ABS for enhanced durability and tactile feedback.
• Laser-etched symbols allow instrument illumination to shine through clearly.
• Coating resists fingernail and key scratches better than OEM soft-touch surfaces.
• Full replacement design prevents sticking that can happen with sticker-type covers.

Is installation difficult and what is included?

Installation is designed to be straightforward and usually does not require removing the steering wheel. The kit contains multiple button pieces and the recommended method uses simple screws to fasten each button into place after removing the old ones.

• Kit includes 12 steering wheel menu button pieces to cover both sides of the wheel.
• No steering wheel removal required in most cases—grab and pull the old buttons out.
• Instructions recommend using a drywall screw to secure each replacement button.
• Ensure your vehicle’s OE numbers match A2185400162 or A2185400262 before fitting.

Will the buttons still let indicator lights or backlighting show?

Yes — the button symbols are laser-etched so light from the steering wheel’s backlighting system passes through, maintaining visibility. The design preserves the illuminated appearance while preventing common peeling problems.

• Laser-etched lettering preserves factory backlight visibility.
• Precise molding aligns with original light paths and button placement.
• Black finish maintains a factory-matched look with the steering wheel.

Who is this for: This Jaronx steering wheel button replacement kit is intended for Mercedes-Benz owners who have peeling, worn or sticky steering-wheel control buttons on compatible models and want a durable, OEM-style replacement.

Remember to confirm your OE part number matches A2185400162 or A2185400262 and avoid ordering for ML, GL, GLE or GLS-class vehicles as the backing buckle differs.
