How to get rid of the HORSE HAIR odor in old MB cars.

[ericnguyen]

Dear friends:

My friend got a 1980 W116 300SD. The seats are MB-Tex.

The problem is that the smell inside the car is really aweful, and I believe that this smell emanates from horse had pads under the seats. Is there any product or a way to help alleviate or get rid of this horse hair smell?

Is it easy to remove the MB-Tex cover and throw away the underlying horse hair pads?

Thank you very much for your precious information.

Best regards,

Eric
