It was a direct swap for the original and being a complete distributor also corrected any wear problems with the original concerning advance curve etc. Take a look at there web site at www.123ignition.nl. It is more expensive than systems that bolt onto the existing distributor, at £250 inc vat, but if yours is a bit worn as mine was, it works out far cheaper.I purchased mine from Southern Carburetters on www.sciperformance.co.uk and it arrived the next day.David Brough1969 280SL

According to input at Pagodentreff.de, an electrically operated Golde was also available. That site also states that due to the shape of the hardtop, practically all of these sunroofs were leaking when it rained.For about a year and through various attempts by my professional mechanic I had a Pertronix ignition system installed. The car did not accelerate past 3600 rpm (misfiring) and was nearly undrivable uphill. I discarded it and am back at the original system.Klaus1969 280 SL
