Clifton;

Thanks for the info!  Yes, there are a few companies that make them, and
you can order them directly from MBZ.  I have a couple of young
daughters (5&10), and every once in awhile could use a quick rear seat.

I have a great mechanic - I'll ask him about your bleeping sound.

Thanks again for your time.

Cheers,

Greg
