hood

Hi al, I have a 2000 W208 CLK Cab. For the past couple of years I've had a fairly infrequent issue with my hood. When it happens it is annoying as it's always when you've got a boot full of stuff and opening the trunk / boot with the key manually is a pain. It usually happens when putting...

Just cleaned and waterproofed soft top.

Hi, Living in France, I have a 129 sl320, 1998, and when left outside in the rain, the hood leaks above driver's left knee (lhd car). I've tried silicone grease to no effect and today discovered that water is not coming past the seal, but past two screws an inch or so behind it - in other...

just ordered a new hood insulation mat as mine is getting flakey from the SL shop. Looked on YouTube looks straight forward is it a age related as the cars 20 years old. Other than a service by my local Indy should be another happy year of ownership as the last mot went with no advisory notes...

I've a few of these, all complete, in poor to average condition. Ideal for parts or resto. I know little about 107s, so fair offers accepted. Otherwise they will be put on Ebay, I think.

Hi with clk convertible it intermittently, when it hasn't been used for a few days the switch for the hood lights up red. The hood will then not work or Windows and mirrors.

I'd be very interested for any help, advice or experience that anyone can share of having a partial or complete re-trim. I have a 124 E320 Cab that needs a hood, headlining and leather. Whilst cost is of course an issue, the most important requirement is that the job is as faithful to the...

Hi guys, what's the general direction that you guys take when the seals in the soft-top hood rams fail? Do you guys buy new from the dealer, or do you get them rebuilt? If so, where/whom can do the rebuild of the rams in the UK? I've managed to find Top Hydraulics | Rebuilt and Upgraded...

Hi Just been sponge washing the hood down on my 2000 clk cab. The previous owner had obv been trying to clean with a jet wash leaving just streaks in the green. Not so bad now i have most of the green washed off but also has now revealed where he had been scrubbing as well, so there are marks...

My neighbour's son in law, Lawrence, has a 430 CLK. After lending it to a friend the hood is now stuck closed and he asked me if I knew how to get it working again. Obviously I don't but any inspiration or clues to help- it's a 51 reg so I would have thought prime age for lots of things to...

The hood on the merc r219 (i am just curious) if is ok or not. When opening the hard top hood or soft it make a loud bang from the latches above the wind screen when unlocking. Which has been greased. When closing the soft top above 6 to 7 inches from the windscreen it drops heavy onto the top...

Been playing around with a vacuum steam cleaner, looks promising so far. Although it's hard to get an absolute even finish I can see it's an improvement. After twenty years of grime buildup it just takes time and patience to remove - at least it is possible without having to replace the liner...

Not strictly electronics, but I could do with some ideas for an electrical mounting issue I'm having. I'm replacing the horn on my W204 as I think it sounds a bit naff, but the replacement speaker is about 16x16x16cm. From what I can tell, every inch of space inside the engine bay is taken up...

The bonnet catches on my R129 are playing up, once opened they don't want to close normally. I need to get my hand on to the actual cable and pull each side to manually close the catch, then close the bonnet and hope it latches. Has anyone else had this problem and what fixes are out there?
