Yes, the car has the a/c parts on it. The compressor is very visible on the left front of the engine. The knob to turn if on is above and to the left side of the stereo.
Interesting seats. Are they out of some other Benz or are they custom made to fit it I wonder?

By aftermarket you mean fitted by the dealer, right? Are these the Behr units that are often mentioned or are there some /8s out there with other kinds of A/C? > if AC is fitted, there is a rotary switch on the console that switches the > air from from heat > to recirculate only AC via the dash vents, and switches from the heater fan > to the AC fan. Aha. So you can tell by the presence of that switch that A/C is fitted? Obviously the best check would be to look for a compressor and so on under the hood, but I'm thinking about how to tell from sellers' pictures if there isn't a good one of the engine. In the CL ad I originally posted, however, methinks in the pic of the engine I see a compressor at the bottom left---at least it has two thick lines coming off and one has a service port on it. Is that one of the famously long-lived York compressors? http://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/1874125467.html Alex _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
