FAHQUAH, how did your W126 Dash R&R work outm, and did you complete the project?

Did you take pictures as you went along?

I pulled a black 126 dash from a 85 380SE a few years back, had no idea what I was doing, and no FSM. just looked it over and started on it. once you start it really isn`t all that difficult if you take your time.

I sent it and a black leather front seat to daw-two in Tenn. man was that a learning experience on how to package them up and get them on their way on Greyhound. I would do it a little different today.

I took over a 100 pics on Friday night trying to record every step of disassembly of the manual airbox.

The dash and seat went into Coda, so Chad and I want to thank you.

Also looking for a grey interior driver side door panel..
well, I can give you help there other than to tell you that I got mine on eBay. I paid around 250 plus shipping for a mint one. They must have always parked it in the shade and had had it garaged as it really looks great.

Good luck.
