Hello fellow MB owners, Im new to forums and message boards alike so please go easy on me....i have just bought a very nice looking w208 clk convertible unfortunatly i had to travel 300 miles for it and it was night time and raining when i purchased it so like A numpty i just took the sellers word for it that the roof worked however the next day when back home i pushed the button and pulled the handle and hey presto it came of in my hand it looks like someone had tried to repair it in the past as a hole had been bored in the centre spigot of the assembly i have today ordered a new handle for it and was wondering if i could call on your expertise and experience to ask is this a common problem....when the handle comes away does it normally break the roof lockinging mechanism on the front header or is it just an easy fix please give me as much information as you can regarding this problem also if anyone know where a roof locking mechanism can be sourced at a reasonable price i would be most grateful thanks in advance for your assistance w208 clk 320 2000 model...
