I totally did the manual sunroof conversion on my 1980 W116 300SD. My Custom 1980 W116 300SD Project


I took the tray from a W123 300TD and cut off some parts and pasted them onto my W116's tray.



It worked great for a while until the forward sliders deteriorated. Now I have to pull down the wind deflector so it doesn't get pinched when closing the roof. I have also converted the windows and climate control to manual. Simple is good.
