Gear Surround (manual)

[pepper&boulou]

Having seen the mods page on here , I was wondering if there was a mod available for the gear surround of a manual w124 ? I have a nice zebrano gear knob and then this discusting black plastic looking gaitor that's nearing it's sell by date as it's now starting to fall to bits.

You can buy an OEM leather gaitor...

Do you have one? And while I'am on the subject I bought this oilcooler on ebay recently originally from a 1993 300D and apparently I need to get a different oil filter casing so that it can be fitted to my merc a 1988 300D and the hoses are very short on it to. Any Ideas?

They are cheap from the stealer, but may be able to dig one out...

Thanks Ricky , PS tell the other guy that works with you the the centre box is fab . that and the wood for the rear doors .I was going to get a lock for it from the stealers but they want £29.93 + vat for one so I will do without for now.

Ah, the green box...i know who you are now!!
So many people...hehe

The oil cooler information is correct, it is because your car is a 12 valve and the '93 should be a 24valve diesel, slightly later engine.
