Alles.
My '85 TD has smooth nylon filament and my '87 190D has a toothsome one.
YMMV.

hmmm you might be correct, maybe the ones I recall dealing with were not 
the correct part or something.  or maybe my recollection is incorrect.

There are some that are “smooth” for the wheels and idler roller to grab, then 
there are ones that have teeth on one side for the other style wheel that has 
teeth.  Not sure which is newer or older.

I think they all have the teeth if I recall from tearing into some of 
them.  Gives something for the wheels to grab

Can't tell if the plastic tail is toothed or smooth.  I think mine needs to
be smooth (1983 300TD).

[MBZ] Antenna mast for the SL600

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1408270001-MERCEDES-BENZ-AM-FM-POWER-ANTENNA-MAST-BLACK-TIP-/230932241658

$8 with a $5 coupon!

Then a coupla cheepcheep spares from China for $7 each 
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Aerial-Powe...75.c100623.m-1 



They are probably mostly crap but the MB part is $273 off Amazon (but 
with free shipping!) but for $21 for 3 I guess I can live with some 
quality issues.


The car has an aftermarket radio in it (very nice Alpine with Bluetooth) 
so I'm not sure how the auto raise/retract is sorted, guess I will find out.
