R129 Silver Arrow Overmats

Hi,

I have a 2001 SL500 Silver Arrow and am trying to get hold of the original mats with silver piping and SL logo. Only 100 of these were made in RHD compared to 1500 for the US and so far I've drawn a blank - can anyone in the US help?

Thanks,

I would suggest calling Mercedes salvage yards. It may be the only place to find a unique item like that. If not, try the dealer. you may pay an arm, a leg, and an eyeball, but you will get what you need.

These mats are listed in the dealer's parts catalogue and I don't think they're much more expensive than the regular jobs. However, I know nothing about availability. If that doesn't work, you may have to get some custom made by a trim shop. It shouldn't be too difficult a job for the right place; the ads int he back of the classic car mags might be a starting point for finding a good upholsterer. Lovely car, by the way, I often fancy swapping mine for a silver arrow.

I've tried MB (DCUK) - they said there aren't any. There were only 100 made so salvage isn't likely either Thought MB Dealers in the US may have some.

I will try to get my local MB dealer to see if they can order them. I don't know how possible it is, but if they ca, I will let you know. However, it will be an odd request, especially as we have left hand drive cars. I will call them in about an hours, as I am a bit busy right now.
