How long did it take to arrive since you ordered at the dealer?

Quite fast...maybe 2-3 weeks.

Make sure you check clearance of the studs. On my 99 I had to cut them to prevent them from hitting when the hood was closed.

As of yesterday it has been 1 month, and i still haven't gotten my 155k mi badge, but i don't know who to call to figure out were it is.

when I orderd mine, I think it was about 3 weeks. I put in for the 250,000 and the 500,000 the same time. they came with the plastic piece`s as shown in the above picture. I think I had to shorten the studs some also.

later on I found one at PNP that was an older one, a 200,000KM. they made them better yrs ago, this one seems to be blue porcilin instead of paint and has two brass screws that go in from the front.

Just call 1 (800) FOR-MERC and they will direct you to the right place. Or call 1 (866) MB-CLASSIC. I can't remember which I called but they told me everything including expected date of arrival (and were right on).
