bolts along the top several you can see inside fener well, two to three behind the plate that sits between fender and a post. Hard to get to , but can be done. If it is the first time off you may consider softening the body sealer with heat, thatis unless bending it does not matter
good luck

x2. I actually bent the fender on my 114 pulling straight up from the front edge.

There are two bolts behind the rocker panel trim as well.

Plus a few near the grille opening.

on the w123, there were fenders that were bolted in, and there were ones that were glued to the chassis. on the 114, are they both glued and bolted? that would be major weird

AHhh - the ZEN of MB - overengineered and sometimes ( in most cases) overkill
