Are you referring to this? If so, just click Buy Parts at the top of any shopforum page.

Unless you're gunning for a prize at Amelia Island, see what's available in the parts forum. IIRC, you can use the headlight door off any 78-85 US spec 230, 240D, 280E/CE, 300D/CD/TD.

Classics: You may want to try these people if you decide on new parts. They're about the cheapest I've found so far. No shipping charges over $50 too. They also ship from the east or west coast so depending on the gods I actually get next day service.

Dude, fastlane rocks. And I put new headlight doors on my W123 for Christmas - they make a world of difference.
