Question Attention PAOLO: INTERIOR Color

I know of two colors that are used in the Mercedes W124 cars that are red/burgandy. I was able to find 1 set so far. Is this the color you were talikng about or is it the darker color? I was thinking about the darker one personally. Sorry the condition of this interior is not so great and the armor all doesn't help either. It's hard to find these pics BTW this is a 1990 300ce.

I have the red interior in my W124CE.

I picked up the whole interior (everything) off ebay for ..... £50 or about $80


It went from Creme cloth



To Red Leather

That's a bargain. Congatulations on your new interior. Looks great! There was an 850CSi modified by some tuner that had the same color exterior/interior as yours. That wasthe first time I saw that combination.

How hard was the install?

I guess it took me the best part of a day.. nothing hard really just time consuming.

I recon that I could now do it in less than 4 hours (now I know how everything fits).

Since then I have done a few exterior changes including a complete back to metal respray (losing two tone). Oh and did I mention my pneumatic remote controlled hood star

Another interior mod some of you may appreciate is a quick detachable laptop mount for sat nav stuff.
