My appologies guys this is my third thread now on three different issues.
I'm new to MB's so it's a bit of a learning curve for me and diagrams and not as freely available on the net as they are for my other cars.

We bought a CLK W208 CAB 230K a few weeks ago. The internal roof trim that runs along the width of the roof at the front (around the roof handle) was missing. The guy said that he had to get it back from the guy who was retrimming it. I have a feeling I may never see this part, however I'm sure I will be able to source one at some point.

The problem I have is that when you turn the handle, unless you keep up pressure on it, the hold thing will fall out of it's socket. Am I missing a retaining clip of some sort or is it the purpose of the roof trim to prevent this happening?. I have a feeling that it's missing a clip or is broken in some way but I can not find a diagram to confirm.

Does anyone have the answer?
