Are you looking for a Behr for your pagoda?  If so, you need to move your wanted ad to the Wanted section.  It is currently in the 11x section which is for 111, 112, etc (non-113) cars.

Is this what you are looking for?  (Kuhlmeister)

I'm not trying to ruin anyones business, but I just can't understand why you would replace one nasty aftermarket unit with another one.
For an original w111 Behr ac unit expect to pay 2-3000 euros, and that is just for the under dash unit. And that's if you are lucky enough to find one.

Thanks Hans,  i want a correct ac unit for the car if it had been fitted with one at manufacture ( although the car is not data carded for ac) 

I'm happy to pay the correct price for the right one.

Is Behr underdash the same as Frigiking, and/or Kuhlmeister?

The Behr AC units where the only factory installed units and they are different from the aftermarket units.
I know of 3 different versions of the Behr units for the W111/W112 cars.

Early type for all W111 and W112 two and four door cars up until around 1967.

Second Version found in later high grille coupes and convertibles:

Late version found in low grille coupes and convertibles:

Nice.  I think my Kuhlmeister is not that nice.  But I never dreamed of $3500 either...
