I thought I would throw this out there to see what can be done locally before trying to have something shipped.

Is there anyone in the

Arlington, TX
Dallas, TX
Fort Worth, TX
Southlake, TX
Colleyville, TX
or other close areas

with a good used driver's seat for a 1989 300E (W124 sedan)?

I don't care about color, though I would prefer brown, black or palomino. I am going to reuse the sheepskin cover I have anyways. The reason I need a replacement is that my seat is tilted to the left since the rail or motor underneath failed for a brief moment but then started working again. Rather than try to remove this one and take it apart, and try to reset it.. I would rather just swap in a good used assembled seat.

If you happen to have a complete interior including seats that you would not like to break into parts, just PM me anyways maybe I can spring for that. Though it would have to be black, brown or palomino for me to consider it.

Thank You

Found it on car-part.com, one of my favorite haunts for recycled parts. No interest, just trying to help out. Good luck.

Take it apart first , i had a friends car with same problem , turns out the
motor and 1 cable was bad , the seatback has a cable that runs from left seatback pivot , and cable from right side seatback and cable was slipping more on one side than the other causing the seat to lower backrest to
twisted position , just needed to exchange motor and cable, was easy to fix once seat removed

I've got a working memory motor base unit from a 1992 400E being parted out. $45 delivered to your door in TX. You would need to do homework to ensure its plug and play. Unbolt your spring box to transfer.
