Sorry about the spammer being the first reply to your announcement. Thanks very much for becomming a sponsor! Since you posted this in the 107 section of the forum, are you aware of any of the Kleeman, etc., goodies that might actually be useable on a 107 chassis/motor? Aftermarket stuff for my 560SL is virtually non-existent.

Smile Parts for 89 560sl

Kevin:

My sister just got "gifted" a white (looks like yours) SL that has the passenger side seat hinge missing its plastic (really cheap part, I am amazed) cover as the the two retaining studs are broken. I have the old part so got the number. It is A107 913 04 28. Any ideas as to where I could begin to get a replacement??
I own a 97 320E and an 08 GL. Thos boards have lots of hits, but this one is probably a tribute to the uniqueness of the cars???

I would try Rusty Cullen for the part first:

www.buymbparts.biz You can plug in the part # on the web site, or better yet call to get a confirmation that they have it and at what price. I've always had good luck and great service from them.

After that, the MB Classic Center might be another place.

karburn, unfortunately no aftermarket parts are still manufactured for the R107. For locals, we can offer servicing for the vehicle.
