Re: [MBZ] 124 wheels
No glove box. All you get for storage are map pockets on the doors and the miniscule center console.

Since there is a passenger side airbag, I assume that there is no glovebox in the 94 E320. If there is, I can't find a sign of how to open it. Where did they put the owners manual? Just tossing it in a door pocket seems crude compared to the effort that MB has typically put into the owner's packet of stuff. I thought perhaps they had a rear deck compartment for it, like the compartments on the 126, but all I see is the first aid compartment. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
Re: [MBZ] 124 wheels
Thanks. It has 8 hole, and 195 tires, so they should be 6.5, as I suspected. The gas door sticker says 195 tires also. I appreciate the answer.
