Door window - tinted left side
« on: July 16, 2019, 16:44:27 »
Hi guys,

My door window broke during the final stages of assembly.
I am looking for a seller of a tinted window for my 1970 280SL.
I know I am running a risk on the color of the window but hopping for a good price.
Many thanks
Francisco

I bought right hand side tinted from Mercedes dealer I think about 18 months ago. it came lower price than from some of the other vendors. Why don't you try there and have original glass pane?

Hi Pawel,
MB quoted 559€.
Once I am in Europe, I also have to consider shipping and customs.
So far, the best option I see is SLS-HH, but I was looking for someone with a "left-over".

Ok. Why shipping and customs (just curious)? From Mercedes you just get it from the nearest dealer....

Hi,

Sorry for the late answer. Sometimes I don't get notifications...
Shipping and customs is only for foreign suppliers (customs only outside EU).
I have a local dealer for MB, but they have the highest price.
Cheers
