Do hazard warning triangles and AMG Pentas count?

I upgraded my 1985 300TD with 1st generation w126 rotors and calipers and added keyless entry.
RESULTS: No brake fading and my lock tumblers never get used anymore. ![]() I also did appearance mods like the blacked out grill and headlight fins. I'm currently adding a third row seat and I also support Fastlane AND AllPartsExpress. ![]() EDIT: I forgot to mention that I replaced the sound system, all speakers, added a subwoofer in the spare tire cover and an amp where the first aid kit used to be. I guess that's as "ricer" of a mod I've done.

OK chief, here are my extensive and very technical mods:
1st- we have hubbies on the '85 wagon ![]() My results are that I don't have to look at Bundts! 2nd- we have a rather cheesy and extended-temporary boost gauge ![]() My results are an almost unsafe fascination with watching the boost gauge under different types of driving. 3rd- We have the blackening of the grill insert. [China and the white wagon] ![]() ![]() My results are not having to look at the horrible faded and chalky grill insert. 4th- we have the added horsepower of the passenger side mirror on China ![]() My results are that objects are not closer than they appear 5th- [and most important] We have the added console cup holder!!! ![]() This is China's above ![]() You can just see a portion of the white wagon above ![]() [Squash and Smash have 'em too] No pic for Smash... ![]() My results are a secure place for my ever present coffee cup to ride, and a reduction in the use of my center arm rest! Your results may vary....... ![]()

mods???
Hmmmm.......
I'll give this thread a go........ I ripped out the ricer single cd player deck. Replaced it with an authentic Mercedes Benz cassette deck. Even paid to get the code, so it would work. Worked numerous hours to get the bypassed fader switch to work. Installed a w126 clip and warning triangle. Replaced the original dash with period correct dash without cracks. Replace the driver's original seat with a black incorrect pattern seat from a 560SEL; to which was replace with a period correct seat pattern. Well? How have I done so far? ![]()
