WTB W126: Crack-free blue dash, blue seat skins, OE radio, rear headrests
 

I am interested in buying all of the following for my new project, though I am not in a position of paying for anything at this point. This is basically a feeler, and I make no commitment to buy.

1) A crack-free blue dash, 1st-gen preferred.

2) Blue MB-Tex seat skins that would fit on the first-gen power seats. Like this, but in blue MB-Tex:

3) OE head unit; I believe that this would be a Becker with AM/FM and a cassette player.

4) A set of rear headrests; I don't care about the color, I have covers from my '84. I just need everything I need to retrofit these into a 1982 300SD.

Have you tried the local junk yards?
There are two decent ones right in Billerica

More w126's in the yards now then 123's. one decent thing about living in the rust belt is that there seems to be less sun damage.

Jack's and Holland's... yeah, I should go try those. I'm used to the W123 that no-one seems to have parts for :rolleyes:.

Hey, have you ever been to Tadmuck in Westford? I called the guy once a couple years back and got yelled at for wanting to know what he'd charge for a generic cable-clutch pedal (I wanted something to use as a brake pedal in a wooden go-kart (no motor) that we got from the neighbors).

just FYI the radio you're looking for is a 1st Gen Becker 612. it has all the buttons flush mounted. the 1st and 2nd Gen Becker 612 faceplates will interchange on any Becker 612 chassis

Thanks.
