Re: [diesel_mercedes] Rubber Produtcs , Winwods Etc.

 



I've been working on old cars since I was in short pants and German cars since the late 1960's , I'm ' Yankee Thrifty ' (cheap) so I try to use the good stuff whenever it's important and keeping the water out , even here in the Desert ir paramount if you want it to last .

I don't see many 110's in the junkyards , keep hunting though .

Thanks for your input Nate. Tom has been recommended a few times now so I'm almost certain I'll get my parts from him.

Dexter ;

I've been a German car mechanic for over 40 years and I can tell you one thing for certain :

ALWAYS use the OEM German made rubbers ! at the very least on the windshield and back glass grommets .

I know the price differential is large but trust me here ~ the cheaper ones don't last long and after they begin to leak in a tear or two in spite of always parking inside your garage so they don't get much sun , you'll be seriously P.O.'d .

I see someone else had already posted Tom's E-mail , also a like to Peach Parts who also sells original Mercedes rubber , Tom @ The Classic Center will be the better price once you figure in shipping and it'll be faster and fresher too .

I'm a (damn) Yankee Farm Boy born and bred so when I get up off a dime , you can believe it's well worth every penny .

-Nate
