Fitting the Windscreen/deflector
Still waiting on the Handbook being delivered.
How do you fit the Wind screen/deflector to the car, had the roof down but couldnt figure it out.
And just to make double sure the water tank for the windshield jets is a black one left centre of the engine ?
Thanks for your help

Yes, lift the rollbars halfway so that you can still have enough angle to lay the deflector down on the rollbar and position it properly. The plastic snaps need to wrap around the rollbar itself. The deflector is held in place on the rollbar by these snaps.

SL500 and A-CLASS
Most important thing that must be done first. Place a cotton towel around the cabin trim and over the top. I have got all my rear cabin trim replace because the MB-tex tore when I just lay the windscreen on top of it. I hate MB-tex.
