I've never seen a US-spec 108 that didn't have power steering, power brakes, radio, power windows, and AC. If they had sunroofs they were power sunroofs. Most are automatics, and most that I've seen have MB-tek interiors. No US 108 cars had either cloth or velour interiors. I did score a set of Nackenrolle front headrests from a 67 250S that I think was a US car as I recall...
