There are certainly other vendors. My interior came from GAHH in 2006 and I am still pleased with it.

Has anyone ever purchased interior or soft-top product from Lakewell in Belgium?  www.lakewell.com  Just wondering about the quality and the service.

Thanks for your reply to my post. I live in Long Beach not to far from GHH in Hollywood. Do they install or  just sell kits?
My car is not a Concours car. I just want to freshen up   the interior. I have a  Kinder seat and was wondering if anyone can send  me photos of
a carpet set from GAHH install with the Kinder seat. I do not remember what  it looked  like when I was young.
Any pictures would help me get a professional jog done to like new again.

On the subject who does restoration of hard tops. I have two one original the headliner is bad and the chrome is pitted badly
I found a  headliner set for my other top which is great , I also found I had ordered the side window  seals and I am looking
for the back  window seal to purchase. I like to strip the top with the chrome bars and have it painted then put back together.
I understand the rear window is NA. Leave  it  to Mercedes-Benz.
Any way thanks for your support.
Sincerely
