Today I went out and bought some interior paint from the paint jobber and prepped and painted the 560SL seats that Wodnek bought down from Wisconsin.

The paint went on very easily and required very little prep. It's supposed to bond with the leather and not fade. I think my black 500SLC has had the same treatment and this method was also recommended to me by a 280SL owner at the Centerville gathering.

I must say the results are quite pleasing. The paint is high build so it fills in the small cracks that come with age.

I don't have before and after pics of both seats so I have taken a picture of the drivers seat before painting and the passenger seat after painting to show off the results.





Other then this, i replaced a nusance bulb on my E420 and tried to get to the blower regulator, i could not find it so i signed up to alldataDIY which showed me how to get to it. It's quite involved.
