Re: [MBZ] W463 door pocket
Thanks for those replies. Interior is pretty much perfect leather. I bought a new door pocket from the MB dealer in Monterey. I will have to rejoin MBCA, but it seems like these online dealers are already at wholesale on a lot of items? Will keep the junkyards in mind for future replacements. Speaking of which, the seats are wonky. I know there was a TSB on a lot of the seat controllers in the 2005 range cars requiring some gold plated wiring or something, so maybe that will work. Behavior is idiosyncratic; sometimes passenger seat will not move backward until I move it all the way forward to reset the hall sensors. Right now the passenger seat back will only recline, making it hard for my 55 pound 4 year-old to squeeze behind it into his car seat! Something about the resistance in the circuit so maybe some sort of electrical contact spray on the connectors will work. On the whole it would be good to retrofit some mechanical seats from a 2000 or earlier model! The lumbar pneumatic stuff doesn't work either...but they are nice looking and fairly comfortable, if hard.

Re: [MBZ] W463 door pocket
Need a source for a right front 2005 gwagen door pocket. Used is fine. New ones are $280 or something equally egregious.

Re: [MBZ] W463 door pocket
Car-part.com I found 5 listings for RF door. Call em up and ask if they will sell the liner or door pocket. 4 are in CA, one in PA. You might also try calling the junkyards around Phoenix and lost wages. I'd expect some gwagens to be crunched in those areas. Need a source for a right front 2005 gwagen door pocket. Used is fine.
