How about some corbeaus rewrapped in matching leather? i know there are some dismantlers in fresno but I don't know any MB specific ones in that area. Give www.silverstarrecyling.com a try.

you can try potomac I know they arent local, but last time I checked a couple years back I spoke to pat and he had I think a whole interior for a pretty good price.

Hey Eric,
I just put these in my cabrio.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-R...91393439QQrdZ1
They hold real nice, I took my friend who works at the MB dealership in Parts for a rip yesterday and he couldn't believe how well the seat held him.
Plus they're alot lighter than the regular seats.
I'll snap a picture later and post it

Knowing me. I'll probably get Recaro Pole-Position seats in the way future and have the AMG logo put on them since thats what the seats in the CLK DTM basically is.

Eric have you thought about buying new seat covers for your exisiting seats?
Also I would call potomac and talk to pat and ask him if he can locate some. the 89 seats have a different pattern on the leather.

If you just need the rail then I would assume one from any year w124 coupe would work. the seats with the same leather pattern should be from 1990 onwards.

Eric,
Why don't you just re-upholster? IMO I wouldn't trade my power seats for those racing buckets. You can get MB-tex re-done pretty cheap, leather
will run you around $1,800 - 2.

if you cant find the rails, perhaps you can get some custom machined ata machine shop.
but I am thinking maybe rails from any w124 may work. not sure if they are different than the coupes.

The phone number I have for an MB dismantler in Sun Valley is 818-768-0704. I don't know if it's still good or if they are still in business. I had talked to them about rebuilt transmission, but I have not done business with them.
