I have just bought a lovely 280 SL Pagoda 1970 model with very low mileage, and I am new to the Forum. It's a left hand drive, and in order to get it through it's UK MOT, I need to convert the headlights to UK standards. Can anyone tell me what I need to buy, and where from ? Just the lens, or the whole headlamp unit ?
There is also one very small ceramic fuse - which has blown. Not sure what it does, but again any clues where I can find a supplier ?
I have tried various websites and also Mercedes UK - none of which have produced any results either for the headlights or the fuse.
Lastly, there is a pull-up switch in the middle of the centre console; it looks like a cigarette lighter (but isn't), lifts about half an inch and has a small light in the top of the switch which illuminates when the switch is lifted. Any idea what it does ??
