R129 roof controller on an A124
So the connections of the roof controller for an R129 look the same as the A/W124 cabriolet... I'm referring to :
1298202426 compared to 1248204026
I've counted/compared pins and fitment of both units to be the same.
Has anybody actually tried to use an R129 controller though with success?
Original 124 controllers are impossible to find and these 129 controllers are reasonably attainable.

I have a W124 cabriolet and an R129 and, while the two controllers share a lot of common hardware, they contain totally different firmware and are, therefore, not interchangeable.

The roof control modules seldom fail and are rarely found as the root cause of roof operational failures.
