I have a 79 450SL with Bamboo Interior. I'm reupholstering seats because the leather was torn up. The rest of the interior is in pretty good shape except three things:

1 - the material on the center console (vinyl?) that goes between the seats up to the wood trim of the heater has faded horribly compared to rest of the dash and interior. I've read about the SEM vinyl dye. Is it appropriate for this piece? Can I remove that covering, or should I dye it in place? Does anyone know a good color match for it?

2. I've read some posts similiar to this next problem, but not exactly the same. The Zebrano wood panel I have that goes over my heat/air panel is solid wood and has curled. Has anyone done the wood soak/ heavy press procedure with that?

3. Finally my heat/air has a wheel for temp and the wheel has a sticker on it to display temp. My sticker is gone.....anyone know how to get replacement?

This forum is awesome. I really appreciate ya'lls help.......
