To start off , let me say the color red sets off the
w113 SL like no other. My father put a leather steering wheel cover on his black wheel. I changed it to ivory because I felt for California it gets too hot to touch on a warm sunny day. Now that doesn't change my opinion of this modification because it looks swell with many dark interiors mine is also dark MBZ tex black on 158 white grey.
I also added peroid coco mat unlike the orginal ones with no backing and lots of shedding the new ones look pretty and give you that correct look. I was told by the manufactor we can get a trunk coco mat as well if I send them a pattern, however I like the bland rubber trunk mat, so no can do this extra feather.
Their used to be a company around the corner from my dads called Vildem B Hann auto accessories. The famous and not so famous used to shop there names like Paul Neuman , and others perrosed the store for fine accessories for their expensive automobiles. today that art of accessorizing ones automobile is losted to the dealer or many magazines.
Red as well be Red just so long as the people looking aren't the cops!!!
