Who sells this 303 Protectant?
I've read that certain dash colors are more prone to cracking than others.
From experience with the 107 cars I've noticed that the 350sl's and 450sl's were manufactured with dash colors coordinated with their interior colors.
I have a 1977 450sl with a brown dash - cracked.
1979 450slc with a blue dash - cracked.
1985 280sl with a black dash- cracked.
1972 350sl with a palimino dash - in perfect condition.
I know that Mercedes went to all black dashes in the 107 cars in the 1980's but did they change their material(plastic composition) in the early 1970's?
I've noticed other early 107's with perfect original dashes but hardly any later ones?
