Title: Soft Top Stop
Post by: 71Beige280SL on November 05, 2012, 20:56:52

Please see the attached photo of a rubber stop that sits at the upper back corner(s)of the soft top. Both are starting to deteriate and I'd like to replace them. The are leaving black smudges on my new top. Does anyone know the part number and where I could get one? My Mercedes Dealer looked at me funny when I asked if he could order me a couple.

These are available at MB parts departments.  You might have to order, note, they are also used for the hood stops too.

Many thanks. I want to say that the Soft Top Stop and the Hood Buffer have different sized bolts. When I took the stop off this weekend, granted my memory may not be 100%, the stop bolt looks considerably smaller than the hood buffer bolt. A little weekend project!

There is a stop screw (110 880 00 17) that is used as hood stop (as mentioned by Bob), folding top cover stop and as stop in the window lowering mechanism in the doors. If it’s the same as at the folding top I do not know since I cant find it in my spare part list (10202). I think your right that the 110 880 00 17 is too big to fit the folding top.
