I use sheet aluminum for the panel..covered by a piece of textured Thermoplastic......I used scrap but you can buy it from Parts express.

Won't say it was easy...because it wasn't.....required cutting away the plastic pocket behind the Ashtray. But it works , looks nice and its not in the way.

Might work on a W123 if you are a non-smoker. Mine as you can tell is on a W116 300SD
