Re: [MBZ] 123 coupe parts
Johnny B, when will you start parting out your coupe? I need the plastic quarter panels and quarter window regulators/motors for my coupe. I'm hoping for a slice of somebody's bad window seal. The expensive one. Mine's shrunk quite a gap that I think I could put a salami slice into to block it. Shouldn't look too bad, and the rest of the seal is in good shape. Just too short now! -- Jim
Re: [MBZ] 123 coupe parts
I've thought about the samething. I have new seals waiting for me at the local MB shop (part of a large parts for car trade). I can send you a portion of my old seals when I replace them. ~ ~I'm hoping for a slice of somebody's bad window seal. The ~expensive one.

Thanks. I'm just bummed I didn't grab the seals from the 300CD that was in the U-Pull a couple of years ago. -- Jim
Re: [MBZ] 123 coupe parts
An even cheaper solution is to remove the old seals (they are not glued in, IIRC) enough so that you can stretch them! This exercise in thrift succeeded in shrinking that ugly gap by at least 60 percent. On 3/3/06, Jim Cathey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've thought about the samething.

Re: [MBZ] 123 coupe parts
The one's between the quarter windows and rear windows. The p/o tried to remove them and broke most of the plastic tabs. They're covered by MB Tex, so color isn't an issue. Or, are they the same as a sedan body? ~ ~On Mar 3, 2006, at 10:21 AM, Luther Gulseth wrote: ~ ~ Johnny B, when will you start parting out your coupe?

The sad part is watching the coupes at the U-Pull go to the crusher after a couple of weeks. The coupe-special stuff is rarely taken. (The coupes don't turn up that often, but they _do_ from time to time.) -- Jim
