The seams on our 85 D are stitched, front and back. I have see the molded seams on some of the older W123. don`t know when this was changed.

I have noticed some of the w126 have the panel across the front edge of the seat, and some that have the stitching all the way to the front.
maybe this is on the earlier 126.
Our 84 SD has the panel across the front, and is the MB Tex material. when we bought the car the interior was in really bad shape. so we bought the kit and redid the front and back seats with MB Tex. much cheaper.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works

It does not matter now anyway... after I asked him about the guides, rails and tensioner, he replied and said that yes, all were changed, but then also stated that it might not matter now anyway, as "the wife" would not take less than $5000 for it now and said he was sorry. Quite a jump from $2000 to $5000 huh? Thats what I call appreciation in value!

He can keep it.
