W124 300 TE Interior - sun visor clips x2

[Mike Walker]

As above in grey required please. These are the plastic clips that the visor is restrained by and not those where it is hinged. WHY

I got mine on ebay- from China I think-very good too. Lots of options here if any help to you.

Thanks for that and may have to go down that route. Hopoing to source locally if I can but........ have repaired one with superglue but the other is too far gone sadly.

Are they no longer available from the dealer ? I wouldn't have thought they'd be that costly ?

Tried Dave Collins?

 

[Mike Walker]

Allegedly exorbitant prices from MB and being retired and all....... Was hoping for a reduced price offer
Still waiting but will give Dave a try thanks.

Last time I checked they were £3.50 each from Mercedes. Was a few years ago, though

One repaired with Superglue and a second one on its way to me courtesy of Mr Swithin who is a perfect gentleman based somewhere in the frozen North. Chatted to him the other day and convinced me it is better up there 'cos beer is only 2d a pint!

 

[trapperjohn]

I know Mr Swithin very well. He is a bit posh is our Steve. Beer is infact 2d a pint in the public houses up here in the Frozen North but if you go to a decent "Insti" (as in Wheel Tappers and Shunters Club) its only a penny 'apney.

 

[Mike Walker]

He told me you were friends John but didn't mention the cheaper option sadly. Understand the "posh" bit as he talked about going to listen to "Jazz" - cool! The Fast Show.

Wheel tappers and Shunters - what a programme!

 

[SilverSaloon]

they are cheap (about £6 i think from memory) from MB.

they only supply the ones for the illuminated visors now, with the metal in them, but they are fine to be used on non-illuminated ones.

 

[Mike Walker]

Thanks for the info but awaiting the post from up North and problem will be resolved. Now about my front wiper motor...........

 

[Mike Walker]

Got the sun visor clip from up north but when tightening the one I repaired it fell to pieces- bugger!
Checked with local MB Dealer who can get replacement from Milton Keynes for £29.64 inc. vat less 10% for Club Membership - OMG!

Replacement headlamp washer arm is £87.60 new and orange indicator lense but no bulb is £87.00. ECP here I come!

Seriously thinking about reverting to a newer car........

 

[trapperjohn]

Jeez Mike they are some bills.

Give Dave Collins a ring 07710 672986 he should be able to help you out. He is a Mercedes breaker and has all sorts of bits squirreled away in his barn.

John
Thanks as always. Chatted to Dave at the MB Club concourse recently and am purchasing an aerial with working motor from him. Will certainly be talking about these other bits too. Prices reflect economy of scale,or lack of it, unfortunately :-(
