Title: What should I Replace?
Post by: pferg on April 02, 2006, 14:25:14

I'm having some work done on my 1966 230 SL and the dash is out.  I've already sent the radio off to Becker for repaire.  Would like to know from the group what else should I replace while the dash is out?  Thanks!!

For starters , I would change every indicator lamp and lube the wiper assembly arms..

Can you be more clear as to what has been removed?  Certinly, the dash is not out of the car.  That is, you did not use a cutting torch and remove the whole metal dash board!  A clear picture of what's removed will yeild better suggestions of what else to work on.

I had to have the ignition replaced and the radio and clock are out. Sent the radio to Becker and was told last week that it could not be repaired so I'm replaceing it.
