W115 tail lamp parts source

I've been helping a local older gentleman out with maintenance on his W115:



He has asked me to help him find some left tail light parts he is missing and my usual sources only show the lens.

He needs everything except the lens. Backplate, gaskets, trim, etc.

He photocopied this page to show the parts but one of the things he circled is the complete assy, I believe.



Anyone know where to source these parts or does anyone have these parts for sale?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I have one in good shape.... What year is his W115? The early taillights are different from the later ones. Mine is from a 1976 300D, and it does look like the one he has circled, but it can't hurt to double-check to be sure. I can get some pics if you wish.
The lights were from a running car that I stripped for spares before sending it to the crusher (rust bucket). I have lots of other parts, btw. Let me know if you are interested.

I need the female switch under the foot operated washer pump. Mine broke the other day and I can't cycle the wipers with my foot.

Hmmm. Now THAT is a hard part to find, I would bet! Wow. Let me hunt around to see if I saved that. I pulled all sorts of stuff... But it was about 10 years ago, so I am not sure if I pulled that one.

I love the badge bar up front! I've been trying to find one for a W116 or W111 for a while now...

I have a pair of the late lenses too, I believe with the backup stuff.

Although I haven't found it yet, I do think that is one of the parts I saved from my 1976 W115 300D. I will continue to look. In the meantime, I have come across lots of other parts for the W115 ..... So emaIl me with your needs. I have lots of obscure little bits, switches, most of the chrome, badges, etc. etc.

I have a used parts page on my blog:

http://mercedesdieselrebuildingdiederich.blogspot.com/

I may have what you need.

I regret to say that it doesn't appear that I saved the foot-operated washer pump/switch. I have listed a lot of the parts that I DID save on my blog, but I haven't come across that one. I will continue to look, on the off-chance that I have somehow failed to recognize it, but.... it isn't looking good. Sorry.

Click on the parts page at the top... they are extras for me, so let me know if you need something. W115 chassis, btw.
