Yes, I should hope so, but i thought the caring for, cleaning and requirements sections were quite informative, but as you say, maybe there are hardly any newbie R107 owners on here. Lol, only fifteen years, times a couple of sunny days per year? In that case, i am an extreme novice!

Just in case there is any interest on here (although there doesn't seem to be), i found this on a very good forum: Mercedes Benz R107 Hard And Soft Top Instructions - Mercedes-Benz Forum Hope it is of help/use to someone

there may be some useful info. in this article: http://r107restoration.blogspot.com.es/ http://photobucket.com/gallery/user/silversaloon/media/bWVkaWFJZDoyNTMwMjI0NQ==/?ref=

Update: I cut a small hole (60x70mm) in the roof storage compartment just above the levers and managed to pull and push to release the tonneau flap, so i can now fold the roof down, woohoo! there were a couple of clips, washers, etc loose in the compartment, so some details drawings of the...

Hello? Is there anybody out there?

Great, thanks Derek. What workshop manual is that? I have the Haynes one and it mentions absolutely nothing whatsoever about the convertible roof. Correct, i can release the rear of the roof/soft top by moving lever 1, but it will not operate the cover catches to release and raise the cover, in...

it seems not. it sounds like i'm going to get the disc cutter out! i can't be the first owner who has had this problem surely :wallbash: i found this on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhjJUWMa89E if you look at around 08:40, there is a fairly good shot of the set-up. i'm...

Thank you guys. Just to clarify, i can release the front rail and the rear bow of the soft top, it is the roof cover/tonneau flap which i cannot raise, in order to fold the roof away. So, SMS, is it still possible to release the soft top cover latches if they are operated by rods? If so, how...

Hello all. just a quick introduction. i don't know what happened to me, but after a visit to MBWorld in Weybridge i think i must have contracted MBitis and have still not recovered. i assume that there is no cure, especially as one gets older, it seems. Unsatisfied with a fantastic 300CE...

Help! Hi guys. i am in a bit of bother. the soft top is raised on my R107, but i cannot put it down because i cannot raise the roof cover flap. i have done it before, but now when i try turning the levers on the left rear interior, they just do not release the cover. :wallbash: Has the cable...
