Looking for door components
« on: December 07, 2023, 01:49:55 »
Hi all

I’m looking for the long rod that connects the lock lever to the lock latch at the rear of the door on 230 and early production 250’s. I need rods for both doors and the clips for each end.

I’ve discovered during the restoration of my late production 250, the donor doors I
have are the early ones that use the single rod versus 2 piece rods in the later ones.


I’m also looking for the bracket that was used on the later doors to attach the rear screw on the later style armrest. I only need one bracket. Thanks.

Mike

Thanks to Michael I have the locking lever rods I need to finish the restoration of the
doors.
Now I need to locate the bracket that was on late 250SL/ 280SL door frames to mount the rear screw for the armrest ( highlighted in picture). Shouldn’t be too hard
to fabricate if necessary.

I looked for it and I am having an issue locating it on the parts lists...

Might have come as part of frame.
