One thing to say. My word these r129 are built well.

Carpets have been swapped not a spot of rust anywhere everything under carpet looks new.

Here are some photos. It is starting to come together. Once i have the silver arrow chrome speedo and the new steering wheel (trouble with wheel cant find airbag for the r129 wheel its a 2001 slk airbag apparently).

Also need to tidy up the center console and add the chrome trims all around.

For my taste it really suits a sl60 more than the grandad interior that was in there before, no offense to grandads. (prob on grandads who could of afforded one new anyways)

The airbag was used on late 129s late sport 202s and slk's
Did you buy the airbag?If not let me know as I might help you tracing one
 
yeah im still looking for one. need one in leather really.
 
The leather one was only used in the silver arrow. Until I bought my car I didn't even know they ever made a leather one. Even the Designo SL editions didnt have a leather airbag.

But that interior is coming together very well.

The only one I could find comes with steering wheel and passenger airbag for £150
I'll pm you the link later and see if he sells the airbag alone
 
You need to change the carpet in the garage if you want to get away from being a Grandad ;)

Nice interior, look forward to the seeing the finished article.
