...I'm glad the radio worked fine. I recently saw an ad on eBay for a Becker unit, just the radio, for $250.00...

I am having the front wheels re-chromed. It is taking them a little longer than originally estimated. Let's see how they come out.

You're right about the original factory wheels. Wheel Concepts put a pair of loaner 8-hole wheels in front. In my forever to be humble opinion the 8-hole wheels just don't look as nice on the W126 body as the chromed 15-hole wheels. Can't wait till they get the wheels finished.

The rear footrests must have been a dealer option. I have the original window sticker but they are not shown on it. I've seen, from time to time, the rear footrests advertised in e-Bay. You also may be able to have an upholstery shop make you a pair. If you need to, I'll send you the measurements and/or take digital pics of the footrests.

Nice meeting you and good luck on your search.
