Finally stumbled across a clip for it, but I got my trunk triangle in today.


I have no idea why this trivial little accesory makes me so happy, pics when I remember to bring the cam in from the car.

I think it has something to do with the reflective/shiney factor. We all have a closet shiney thing lover inside of us

My goal is to build a robot that goes around my room, collects all shiney things, and puts them in a large pile in the middle :p
There are obviously faults with this but ya know...shiney things are pretty :p

Hey, was at the junkyard in VA and found a german mercedes trunk triangle in the rear of a 300TD, but this one folds out and sits on the ground. The lady gave it to me. It isn't the one that mounts in my 300sd trunk lid. But I have one too!

The odd things make the car... I want my First Aid kits full but I have got to get some Zebrano woodtrim first.

At least my vac system is 100%

I agree - It's the little things (that also drives the wife crazy)

I did get my First Aid Kit
I did get my Triangle Mounting Bracket (waiting to locate the Triangle itself - I have received a couple of emails)
I did get my Bosch Euro's - waiting for more parts.
I am looking for other little things like the Roll Top Center Console in Burgandy - It just looks cool.
And there are countless other little OCD issues I'm sure.........

Next major projects include - Spinners, Air Suspension, Gold Bling Bling, Big Thumper in da trunk, Fart Can, Neons, and Bullet Proof Glass................

MMmmmm.. Euro lights..

From the sticky
http://www.jaimekop.com/240D/lights/

They aren't rare...you can buy them everywhere just have to do some slight modifications like this guy did..

I just put the H4's in my w126...also in the DIY sticky at the end

Somebody posted a link to the German Ebay site. The proper lights are plentiful, and can be installed without modifying anything more than the pinout on the plug. I wish I would have bookmarked the site, as I have no clue on what to put in the search to pull the lights up.

With as thrashed as the lights are on the 300D, I'll be springing for a set myself.

Where did you find your trunk triangle clip? I'd love to have one so that mine isn't bouncing around the trunk! Is anyone selling them or did you go junkyarding?

Sounds like MTUpower, William, has something else to keep an eye open for in the yards.
