I went through the aluminum coming apart on my '83, I just fabricated a wedge of wood (pine I think but hardwood would have been a better choice.
In this case the plastic trim has broken apart. I know from past experience that gluing it back together is an exercise in frustration... -Curt Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2012 07:08:33 -0400 From: Dan Penoff <lwb...@yahoo.com> To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Couple parts questions Message-ID: <42354818-4ba1-4389-a1f1-6cda73270...@yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Good luck replacing that trim. I did both the anodized aluminum and the black parts on a 123 wagon once, and I was never able to get parts of the black trim to stay on. To get the aluminum trim on you have to fabricate a tool out of hardwood to drive it in place. A pretty exciting exercise, beating on this tiny piece of trim the length of the car with a brand new paint job.
