[diesel_mercedes] Re: Fender liners (interior panels) for a 1975 240D

 

Hi Chris ;

Have you yet tried the Mercedes Classic Center ? .

Failing that you can make them out of cut up plastic trash cans..... works a treat on Vintage cars in England and Canada .

Me, I moved Way Out west where only my cheap @$$ed 1969 Chevy C/10 pickup rusted out in spite of having nice shiny original Forest Green paint... .

Let us know what you do here .

If Brian is still hitting the So. Cal. junk yards W115's are still here and there, mayhap he can find some for you .

I'm hoping the collective wisdom of this group can guide me on how to find fender liner (panels) for my 115 Series 240D. These are the vertical pieces of metal that live immediately behind the front tires inside the fenders & protect from all the debris kicked up from the tires.

I've run down the usual suspects (ebay, pelican parts, Buds Benz, even dealerships) with the same responses 'no longer made / available'

The M/B part numbers:
1158840535
1158840635

I just replaced the front fenders due to rusting out because the internal shields were in bad shape & want to ensure I address the cause to avoid another costly repair down the road.

Any thoughts or advice from the collective wisdom of the group is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
