I have an E200 W124 saloon and I want to upgrade to a leather interior.
However I need some advice. Should I go for real leather or leather effect? Which is the best material to use to get a good leather effect which is also hardwearing and easy to maintain? I've heard of MB Tex - what's that??
How much would they cost (leather/leather effect) through a MB dealer and fitted by them?
How much would it cost to order it through some other company who can order genuine MB seatcovers + how much is fitting usually by non MB dealer?
Would original seat covers still be available for a W124? All I need is covers for the driver's seat, front passenger seat, rear bench, x4 headrests, front and rear armrests and the doorcard inserts.
Is there a colour chart available to choose from?
When they are fitted professionally, does it look like it has just come from the showroom, or can you tell it has been fitted later?
If I found a very good one at a breakers, how much should I expect to pay for it?
If you wonderful people out there can answer these questions for me then I would really appreciate it.
Cheers
