w113 Left Door Rain Diverter Front & Rear
« on: July 21, 2020, 04:13:12 »
My 280SL is missing the rain diverters from the left door from the front and rear window channels.  I am looking for used ones.

That is the chrome part that goes on the top of the door frame next to the sliding window channel?

If so mine is missing one too. If you find more than one set let me know.

They are the aluminum pieces that attach to the window guides to direct water to the bottom of the door.  They are not mechanically necessary for window operation but help direct water from the interior.  Saw one on Ebay but was to expensive.  Don't drive my car in the rain anyway.
