parts

Where do you guys get your parts? Are there any good on line suppliers?
I have found europartsdirect.com. Are there any others? I am interested in finding some interior items as well.

Thanks for any help, Pete

Hey Pete. Have a look at the opening page for this site. There is a "links" page. Many good suppliers. My personal choices have been Ray who is now at Buds Benz, Miller's (west), and K&K. I also have used Dan at the Benz Barn for a few parts (but lots of knowledge!) A lot depends on where you live. Others have used some of the others and seem pleased. For online exploded diagrams (which I find very helpful), I use SLS.

James, do you have a website for SLS. I could not find it.

Thanks, Pete

For most things, I use Rusty Cullens. See www.buymercedesparts.com.  Also I'll go to Caliber Motors in Aneheim.  Lastly, there is the mercedes classic center.

All three are top notch and can get "anything".

Pete,
all of the below suppliers are good.

I also use arizona autohaus at
http://www.autohausaz.com/  their prices are good, but they really only have std maintenance items.

do not forget the classic mb center, I have had good luck calling the classic center and verifying part numbers, price and availability

then I call my local mb dealer whom I have a good relationship with and order my parts.  be sure to tell the dealer the price the classic center quotes you , they should honor the price.  dealer list tends to be highter than the classic center.
