    Ceramic paint treatment?

    Its probably also worth comparing brands, as I doubt they are all created equal. I will be interested to see what brand is on the SEL once I remove the pads.

    Ceramic paint treatment?

    Interesting your experiences with low dust pads. My 560SEL presumably has such pads. It makes very little dust. I don't like the brake feel though, if I compare to the 560SEC, which presumably has the regular mercedes OEM pads. The 560SEC gives me much more confidence. I don't know for...

    Penta wheels for the C107

    I'm not familiar with them. I know there are also the Pirellis but they are even more expensive than the Michelins.

    Tyres

    Ouch. I think it would make more sense for me if I drove a lot more kilometers. I would want to get the full 40,000km over 10 years out the tyres at that price I think. Michelin don't make even their regular tyres in the sizes I want though. I wonder if they would sell a whole lot more...

    Tyres

    I've heard these were very good tyres but never experienced them. Are the prices from Stuckey's reasonable? I'm still trying to work out what tyres to put on the new Penta wheels I got for my 450SLC.

    Mercedes Factory Manuals for Sale

    Hi APEXbenz, I'm hanging onto my W126 stuff as I find it useful being the owner of a couple of W126 cars. Just had a look what I have and I don't have anything applicable to a 300SE I'm going to let go. Some of this stuff I bought in sets, so I am thinning down manuals I don't think I'll use...

    W126 Internal door card clips.

    Yes, my 300SE has a couple of those. For example the liner of the glovebox has been cut at the back and the taped back up. Removing it properly takes all of ten minutes.

    W126 Internal door card clips.

    I had the front passengers door trim off my 300SE about a month ago. https://www.classicjalopy.com/2021/06/w126-front-window-regulator/ I don't 100% recall, but I seem to remember the clips were integral to the door card - i.e. they were not separate clips like on some cars. You may have to...
