My 17 year old son just completed his physics experiment by studying the impact of the left rear of my '85 300D with a fire hydrant.
His conclusion was that the taillight assembly gives before the steel hydrant.
Anybody have a left rear taillight assembly for a 123? I would also need the trunk trim at the bottom lip.
Finally if anyone has any ideas how to get the left rear quarter panel to move about 1/4" to the left, I am all ears. When the trunk closes there is no gap at all at the rear left and the trunk is forced to move about 1/8" to the right.
Any help would be appreciated. I might be able to post some pictures later. I thought I would try you guys before venturing into EBAY.
