[MBZ] 124 Door lock re-key

Yesterday I accidentally tried to unlock the driver's side door of The White Whale (1987 300TD) with the key for a different 124. Has anyone tried to DIY re-key a 124 door lock? I've got a complete set of door locks from a different car to experiment on. - Max Charleston SC

Re: [MBZ] 450SE on BAT

Agreed.   W113 in 1964 W114/W115  (The /8) 1968 for Mercedes and then the W116 in 1972. Although the W113 shared front suspension components with the 110/111. But style wise, it was a revolution for MB. For BMW, the /5 series in 1970 Jim Cathey via Mercedes wrote on 1/18/19 8:21 AM: The

Re: [MBZ] Televisions, comrade

A few years ago a friend loaned me a Roku box, for playing various free media on our TV. It _refused_ to function until you'd registered it, using a credit card, even though we were never going to buy anything to watch. I returned it to him. We don't have anything voice-activated in the house,

Well, think about how low is the cost of inserting a cell phone into a smart TV, and then maker pays for the data connection so it can spy and report and you won't know it. How much you want to bet that the TV data sellers haven't thought about that? I'll bet they can negotiate some really low
