W123 Euro lights + wiper assy's - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

Thanks for looking at my advertisment,

I just got a set of BOSCH used Euro lights to fit a W123 body. These were out of a 1980 280. But will fit any W123- 300/240 d's etc.. Anyway, they do not have the headlight adjustment servos. But they do have wiper motors and arms.

Here's what it includes:

2 Bosch light assy's. The seals have some body putty in spots, so I wonder if they were might need attention. One assy does have some dirt inside the lense from me washing and not putting my finger over the vent hole( sorry). Glass looks really good condition.

2 Turn turnsignals. These are in good condition also except someone cut a hole into the back side of the housings to meet road inspection(?). They cut the parking light wires and wired them into additional sockets. I will resolder the internal wiring in the light assy's(I do very neat work-unless you want to do the repair). The turnsignals- I'd suggest JB weld- or you can use your US style ones.

3. Two wiper motors: 123 820 03 42 and 123 820 04 42 which are right and left.

4. The big 2 pump water reservoir. Don't know the condition of the pump motors and you'll need to buy new sealing grommets for the pumps.

5. Wiper arms- left and right. Shaft bushings for where they go through the valance.

6. Hardware- connectors, screws, factory shoulder screws etc..

Missing- the 2 little wiper blade assys. Honestly, I would think you can get a 2 used W124 wiper arm assy's cheap from someone who's converted to Euro's. Then, you don't have to drill holes in your bumpers. You'll need make a harness for the wiper motors(use your old 4 pin USA headlight connectors) and a few relays, pins etc.

My eye ball measurement for location of the bumper hole was 8" from the fender/valance seam for the water nozzles. It's 10.25" to the hole centerline for the motor shaft in the valance.

I'll update with pictures this weekend and always happy to answer questions=)

Lets see some pictures this weekend.

Id be interested in the wiper stuff.

I already have euro lights.

I'm interested in the euro lights, how much are you asking?

samiam4 · #4 03-10-2004, 09:58 PM

Here's the pictures

I looked at the parking light wires which are cut. I'm thinking it would be easier for someone to drill out the rivet holding the ground and replace with a screw.

I'll be happy to send you higher resolution picture files as needed.

Here's the hole/notch in the back of the turnsignal's I was discussing.

samiam4 · #6 03-10-2004, 10:47 PM

Here's the last one+)

How much for the wiper stuff, and the reservoir?

Nice pictures BTW.

OmegaBenz,

Good question! I'm having several ppl ask me the same thing- make an offer of what you think is reasonable.

I'm just trying not to get stuck with leftover pieces.

Hey,

By "they," do you mean the wiper stuff too?

If you sold the wiper stuff, have you come across any more part numbers besides the motor part numbers which you listed above. I want to hook up the wipers sooner or later.

$275 is a good deal for everything considering I paid about 300 dollars for just my euro lights (inc shipping and bulbs).

What is so weird is that a bunch of cars (imported to the US from europe with their euro lights still intact) that I have seen have a right side hella vacuum adjust headlight, and a left side bosch no vacuum adjust. It is crazy. Anyone know about this?

Austin,

I'd agree it's kinda wierd how each importer made the cars meet US spec.

I saw a W123 in the 80's shortly after it was imported. The Euro lights were just put in the trunk- bonus !
