SL500 R129
I'll try this spot

I have just got my first ever Merc.
1991 SL500 84k Miles, 2 Owners, Immac but with a couple of minor probs.
I have no highbeam, checked the fuses and the bulbs, I would like to check the relay but can't find it??????
Another thing (my fault) I was so excited about this car I didn't look in the back. It's got no rear seats. The others I looked at did so didn't think to look. Now I find out they were an option. Where can I find a set (UK) or does anyone know of a cheap set (USA) that need redoing as I have a unique (weird) Pine Green interior. Of course will need belts as well.
Cheers for any help you can offer.
