Looking for W210 seats
Hi guys, I have a 1997 W210 with grey leather seats (manual, not electric). The seats are not in the best shape and I am looking for a set of replacement seats; preferably both front and rear, but at least the front would do. Would anyone be having a set of seats from a parts car? Unless, any leads would be highly appreciated. I am located in Sri Lanka.
Thanks in advance!

IMO you have 2 reasonable and 1 expensive option:
1) Buy quality sheepskin seat covers for your existing seats
2) Go to a boneyard (LQK has tons of W210's) and find some seats, doubtful you will find manual.
3) Pay $$$ to have your existing seats reworked by a professional shop
Just read where your live, scratch #2 most likely.

But given location, having a local shop rebuild them may be a good option as labor costs are less than in the West. And my experience living in Asia is, lots of local talent resurrecting quality, but worn parts. Finally, it's a seat, not an ECU -that sort of low-tech part lends itself to low risk rebuild. Snort around until you find a guy/shop with the right experience and I think you'll be fine.
