Dealer says "these will not fit the car as the car has code 'P31' AMG line."
I think they should fit my 2017 GLC250d 4MATIC AMG line Premium with side step.......could anyone confirm or advise please

YET AGAIN......several dealers I contacted (I was not close-by to my local dealer at the time) said they would not fit, one (who lists on fleabay "up North") even went as far as to state I WOULD CAUSE significant damage to the underside of the car if I attempted to do so !!!
My local dealership agreed with me that they should fit, adding that Mercedes do not recommend them due to it having the side step and AMG trim and that it "would spoil the lines of the car".....so why make them ????? I feel that having mud and crap plastered all over it spoils it too - we dont all live in cities and drive at 10mph you know - but ordered them anyway.......not only do they fit PERFECTLY, they only took a mere couple of minutes to do - 3 small plastic poppers out, remove double sided backing strip, offer mudflap up, 3 x plastic poppers back in, press on a spring clip at the top of the mudflap and insert a self drilling screw underneath and that's it....in all honesty it took me longer to type this than to fit them !!!
The rears however do not fit at all - they are totally the wrong shape and size and none of the holes line up so I will be taking those back. Interestingly the packaging had already been opened on them so I guess someone else already tried
At the risk of duplicating previously posted pics I have attached mine - at least you can all see what a dirty one looks like LOL!

just found this on another forum - gasp...yes, it seems there are others

further down the post it clearly shows the problem I experienced with the rears not fitting the cars with the AMG trim - maybe this is what the dealer was saying although they clearly stated fronts when I was asking ....and unless anyone can advise otherwise it looks like the rears will have to go without them which is somewhat irritating.....if MB can make them for the fronts with / without the side step then why not the rears also

yes, I saw those but they will only sell in a pack of four....and I now only need the rears.....unless anyone wants only the fronts and we can split them
Also, buying from China is a bit risky for amounts over £17 as they are subject to import tax and VAT...I know this after buying what appeared to be a cheap camcorder microphone which actually ended up costing more than buying it in the UK!
Maybe I was unlucky and got caught....maybe it depends how attentive the customs people are
