I just replaced my flex disc on the 230sl and a friend said look at this site 'www.fcpgorton.com' and sure enouph the flex disc there was
$50.00 cheaper then at BUD's
Check these guys out they have good quality as far as I can see.

fcpgroton uses World Parts.  Here is the site that I use for World Parts which accesses the same "parts engine" but is 20% cheaper.
http://www.sasponline.com/

Try looking up the same part on both systems.  Compair the part numbers and prices.

I had a not pleasent deal with this sasponline.com.  I ordered the right and left calipers for upgrading w113 brakes to vented brakes and after two month after they collected the money from my credit card they shipped the complete order to only find one caliper.
After a hard time contacting them they agree to credit my credit card for the missing caliper but it never happened.
Be aware of low prices sites on internet.

Regards all.
