Hi all;

just looked at a lovely 280SL for sale, but the heater controls were all busted, and the replacement of these looks like trouble. the guy selling the car has the replacement parts, but it would appear that the dash needs to come off to get to the heater, ventilation, defrost controls. Has anyone ever done this? is it easier to build a new car around the replacement parts than to tear into the old car and replace them? Any hints?

thanks

tom
