1993 300CE Convertible Top Hydraulic Cylinder replacement
 

Basically I have a 1993 300CE sitting here at the shop that needs a new hydraulic cylinder for the convertible top. Its was someone elses project that got thrown at my doorstep. Of course there where missing parts and peices everywhere.

I got all the parts needed now. My question is what is the proper way to install one of these. My ShopKey is no help and Mercedes is being less than helpful. Can someone please email or PM me install instructions on this thing. I cant seem to manage to put the hydraulic lines back the cylinder. Dunno if something else has to be removed to make this job easier.

thank you

If you are not familliar with the system, do not touch it. It is a ver intricate and confusing system. If I get a customer that has tried to fix it, and of corase cant, I send them to the dealer. Let them have deal with it. Trust me, you will loose your butt if you take this on. Not only will you have to put the motore in, but you will have to adjust everything. Hahah thats a lot of fun
