My W124 estate requires a little TLC now to bring it back to how it was when I purchased it, so I've decided this is going to be the year to do it.
I feel this thread will get bigger with time, but for now here are the things I have planned and will cover in here:
- clean & repair exterior (rear bumper being main area, & rusty wings)
- clean & repair interior
- retrofit heated seats
- fit double-din multimedia system and new facia
- relocate cigar lighter into passenger footwell/below media screen
- fit headrest dvd screens
- fit parking sensors front/rear
- fit reversing camera
- fit footwell lights
- replace all bulbs with LEDs
- rear centre brake light
- general mechanical repairs that are overdue
watch this space
Although the purists may hate it, doing these small enhancments to the W124 will make my life a lot easier, make it a nicer car to own and will be useful to me. Most of the mods will be reversable and all if a few bits and bobs are replaced.
work starts soon!
