I am hoping to find a good used headliner. My 300D has the lightest color

option. Cream, Parchment...whatever we're calling it. Lighter than Palomino.

So I am hoping a forum member has a good headliner in a parts car, one that

is in good condition, possibly an OEM replacement as they are no longer

available.

I understand it's not likely but thought I'd ask anyway.

I have experienced the foam/adhesive failure on all my W124's. I have

repaired headliners in the past but the vinyl on this one is not salvageable.

I went to the salvage yard yesterday but all the W124's had Palomino

headliners and they were all sagging anyway.

I have had several experiences with headliners. I understand there are other

options. I personally do not care for the Alcentera material. It's what all the

interior specialists are offering in my area. I just hope I don't have to go that

way.

I am just taking a chance here that I have good timing and a forum member

here may be parting out a W124 with a good OEM headliner.

I have not ordered from them yet, but plan to soon. I learned about them on another MB forum and those members have bot headliners from them. I'll see if I can PM you some links from that forum.
