Top Release Handles
This handle is frequently broken in our cars and is no longer available new from Mercedes-Benz. Fortunately we have a source for a quality aftermarket reproduction.
Top Locking Handles
These handles can get scuffed or broken from frequent use over the years.
Hard Top Storage Carts
When it's top-down cruising season, it's important to make sure you keep the hard top stored properly to avoid damage (that chrome is nearly impossible to replace!).
Aftermarket (Nearly) Complete R107 Seal Kits
Many seals for the R107 and C107 are not available new from Mercedes-Benz. That's why the aftermarket seal kit by URO parts is such a popular buy. At only $395.00, this is a nearly complete kit of seals for R107 SL models.
Genuine Mercedes-Benz Seals
We don't have a complete kit listed for the R107 or C107 chassis, but we do have many genuine Mercedes-Benz seals listed on our site.
