Hello everyone,

Does anyone here know where I may be able to get a 2000 s500 wiring harness and some other plastic parts. The car had a small fire under the hood, and so the plastic parts melted along with the wiring harness. (It's for a friend, not my car)
Also, maybe if there is a wreck for sale or a front end, it will be considered. I've searched the last 2 days, but haven't found anything yet.

Thanks

Phil at the 800 number at the top of the screen may be able to help, give him a call if you haven't already done so.

I would also be curious as to what the cause of the fire was, if you would be able to share this information.

My motto is to be as prepared as practical for any unforseen situation, so I always travel with a fire extinguisher in my car. Sure my friends may find it funny, but hey you never know

Ali,

You are not alone, I always carry a fire extinguishers in my cars, I used to have it in my Explorer, since I bought this 400E, I thought this 10 year old might need it more, will buy another one for my Explorer.

Still missing the days with the Benz, it kept me busy.

If Phil can't help, you may want to try Potomic Used parts.

I used to have a Jensen Interceptor that came from the factory with a Fire Extinguisher. They installed it because the fuse box was below the master cylinder. If you have ever owned a British car you know there hydraulics leak and brake fluid conducts electricity, not a good mix with there bad electricals! Guess it was cheaper to put a extinguisher than to move the fuse box. But the car was FAST Chrysler big block and all!
