For vehicles produced from 2010 onward, the \u003cstrong\u003eKEYLESS-GO push-button start\u003c\/strong\u003e became part of that comfort package. In a vehicle used daily for family transport, the start button accumulates presses faster than in most segments — multiple drivers, frequent short trips, school runs — and the \u003cstrong\u003efactory button surface\u003c\/strong\u003e reflects years of that use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003ereplacement button unit\u003c\/strong\u003e fits the W251 directly and returns the switch to its original appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLooking to \u003ca title=\"Interior Car Parts \u0026amp; Accessories\" href=\"https:\/\/europremiumparts.com\/collections\/interior-car-parts-accessories\"\u003eupgrade the interior\u003c\/a\u003e of your car?

Multiple users mean multiple hand sizes and grip styles, which distributes wear across the \u003cstrong\u003ebutton face\u003c\/strong\u003e more evenly but also accelerates the pace at which the \u003cstrong\u003echrome ring\u003c\/strong\u003e collects small scratches and the \u003cstrong\u003ecap surface\u003c\/strong\u003e loses its original finish.
