Title: Heater Control Indicating Arrows
Post by: jcochran@cox.net on December 12, 2013, 20:29:58
Hi,
 I am having my 250SL restored and in the process of re-chroming the heater control plate one of the black indicating arrows (vertical) was rendered useless. Any idea where I could find replacement indicating arrows? I have a bad feeling about this.....

Thanks,
Jim

Jim,

Yes, I don't think it's available as a spare part.

You could fabricate one yourself out of plastic with just a modicum of skill.  Good luck.

You might also try BenzRestorer, try this http://www.vintageeuroparts.com/w113.html, scroll down about half way, and they are listed at $45 for a set.

I have seen them from time to time on ebay.

Thanks you all for your interest and help and please know that the Ebay sites mentioned are one and the same and I have purchased a set. I never expected these parts would be available and would have never found them without your help!

Merry Christmas  and Happy New Year!
