I bought a really nice grey market Euro W123. Unfortunately it was in Washington State all its life under one owner. So there is a rust issue. The PO had a small rock chip in the passenger side light and neglected to fix it. I pulled off the light cleaned it and thought it could be salvaged since it was half full of water. Well it rusted out the lense. Wishful thinking. So there are rust and cosmetic issues, other than that this engine runs better and is more quiet than my previous w124. This guy maintained it well and scored on the price

I'm looking for the following:

-Passenger side Euro Headlight (flat-non circular). -I'd buy the pair if anyone had them.
-White hood and front fenders
-Blue Carpet (loop) Passenger side
-Black center consol panel (located above the climate control-non a/c)
-Euro hazard switch -markings rubbed off (diamond kind not "hazzard")
-Rear headrests (style 032 blue plaid/blue vinyl)

I'm in San Diego and will pay for shipping. Some is for sale here but the postings are so old I'm assuming they sold.

for the hood and fenders i'd prefer someone local in so cal. You can email me as I'm not on these boards that often kvin112@gmail.com. Thank you.

I have the center console panel. Feel free to make me an offer
Thanks,
Shane

thanks man just sent you a private message

Hey man you honestly can find all this stuff down in the yards in Chula Vista. I frequent the yards down there at least twice a month and there is always new W123’s. You are in Mercedes heaven in SoCal. Look up Ecology Autoparts and make sure you go to the import section.

Yes they do! From Main St make a left on Nirvana ( the next street after maxwell ) make a left on Energy way and then your first right .
789 Energy Way, Chula Vista, CA 91911

Yup been to both ecology locations and pick your parts. the w123's there are all stripped and thrashed. Waiting for new shipments as they have been very slow at getting new stuff in lately. 50% off this coming weekend though (ecology only). Onager has a ton of stuff but a bit on the pricey side. Nice guy though. I already bought a few hard to find pieces from some great people on this board. Awaiting their arrival.

Does anyone know of a third party or if anyone has tried the dealer for#032 cloth/fabric. My cloth seat is a bit worn. World Upholstry doesn't supply it.

I was just recently given a 1984 230e (European Import) I am new to the Mercedes cars but have a little mechanical experience. One problem that I have with the car is that it won't start. I have trouble shot the concern and belive that it is the fuel filter or fuel pump. I don't have a Service manual so I have been doing an on line research and I have yet to find a good service manual or a good parts source. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

So I'm getting mixed messages on this. One dealer in Orange county says they can sell it and the local sd dealer says its NLA. Any info on this guys?

Found this website through other upholstery shops. Its a netherlands company and have a ton of cloth oem patterns, but not mine Not sure if they will ship to the usa. I'm guessing they might, haven't looked into it.

Here's the link incase anyone is in the same situation:

WEST TRADING

Ok West Trading does not have my cloth in stock and mentioned it does business with shops only. They did mention my cloth is called "Geflecht" which is "braid".
