The lever on the side is for the elevation, and the one in the front is for the forward and reverse.


I have the spring box ( seat bottom) out of a 90 W126 to install into a W123. I measured both spring boxes, and they measure the same. The 126 seat out of a Gen II has an additional spring in the front, along with a round dense piece of rubber that fits inside of each corner coil spring in the front.

Iam swapping the 123 tracks to this seat.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
