Here's more part numbers for mounting clips.
W126 1268900014 W124/W140/W201 1408900014 Looking at the EPC charts, it seems that for the Euro W114/115s and W116s and previous models that the warning triangles were not mounted on the trunk lid for stowage, but in a plastic container, which is included when you order from the surplus website. I also bit the bullet and got one for the SD. I bought one for the 300D back in December as a birthday gift to myself, and I got it at a good price on eBay. Nobody else bid on it, I honestly thought I wouldn't get it, but then I got the e-mail I won the auction.

Great!
Awesome Benzboy
Now I don't have to feel bad about having it "not stock" Not that it really mattered... I might jury rig something to fit anyhow. It looks cooler

Warning Triangle
I own a 79' 300 SD 116. Does anyone know if the warning triangle will mount in the deck lid like on the 126?

Hmm
No idea...but since our cars are a similar vintage, and lots of my W115 parts have W116 on them, I would think there was no mounting place.

$16 bucks total, and that included shipping. Heck, I ordered one just for the heck of it.
Now what is this about a roll up triangle for wagons? Pics anyone???

I ordered two and never heard from them. I need to double check; but I'm 95% sure that my credit card was never billed for them. Oh well..

German Army surplus
For those of you wanting to know what the $20 German Army surplus road hazard triangle looks like, here is the Gebra Warndreieck mounted.
The base is thicker than the original so there's interference with the middle trunk support. I was in the process of fabricating mounts for the bottom to drop it lower to clear the beam and decided to see if the 1/4 inch x 2&1/2 inch bolts would fit through the holes on the triangle base and bam, add some rubber hose to keep the bolts from rubbing on the trunk frame and you've got a sturdy mounted warning triangle. I figured this German military triangle was good enough for my German trunk. If you enjoy spending a fraction of the price of neat functional accessories, give this a try, you can get them from amazon. Willson 85 300CD |

Too bad a standard w123 clip would not work with this triangle, it's too thick and might be a bit tall.
But nice functional job! .
