Dreaded broken driver's side footwell flap
As with most W126s my 85 300SD had great heat for the passenger but my feet would freeze. I decided to try to take care of it by using the suggestions on the forum.
1) First find a medium binder clip.
2) Detach the driver's side kick panel under the steering wheel
3) Reach in the hole for the heater box and open the flap (it should be totally free if not it isn't broken)
4) Insert the binder clip to lip that the door hinges on. It will snap into place and be slightly tilted toward the flap. It will keep the flap open and can be removed later on if you want
5) Replace kick panel
