This may not be much insight, but you could always dust off your library card and see what you can find there. I remember a great book I checked out a few years ago that had the complete history of Mercedes Benz. I think it was called semething like Daimler and Benz the complete history

I'm pretty sure it would have been Hermann Ahrens, who was design chief before and after the war, but haven't been able to find any definitive answer online. When did seat belts become standard in Mercedes? 1964? And is it true that MB was the first carmaker to install them as standard equipment? (Besides Tucker, I mean.)
