Yes, if the pagoda was made as a 1968 model or later.

The pagodas made before 68 (230sl's and half of the 250sl's) have a different steering column.

Hello Colin,

The early plastic W114, W115 and W108 steering wheels and padded hubs are the same as the later W113 steering wheels. Around 1973 all these cars changed to the latter padded steering wheels same as in the W107 450SLs etc.

I have a nice used black wheel with hub and horn ring. The pad is new.
