I'm pretty sure that the gassers got the headlight wipers standard, but the diesels had them as an option that no one paid for.
My 92 300D doesn't have them either, and it was bought in Cincinnati. Question: if you have them, how do you turn them on? I test drove one and looked like an idiot when I couldn't find the switch. On 1/1/07, Werner Fehlauer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Don - You're probably correct, although I often get comments like "where are the washer/wipers?" - and every one of the '90-'93 124s around here do have the wipers. I just assumed that this may have been a special order by MBUSA. The car had never been titled, so it appears as if I'm the original purchaser, although the car had about 11k miles on it when I got it (at a good discount!). But getting back to the Florida blue 2.5 - I have to wonder if the front has been in a fender bender, what with the broken headlight knob, the need for replacement of the grill, replacement of the A/C condenser, etc. Lots of little inconsistencies, and that's just from the sketchy info in the Ebay ad.....
