These require removal of the batter and possibly the brake booster to replace. They are split so you do not need to remove the sway bar. Plan to replace if doing work under the battery box area. Battery acid is hard on the right side.

In this 9-minute instructional video, Kent explains how to set up his injection pump cleaning and testing kit ( available separately ), and use it to clean out old fuel injection pumps of gum and grime, and then how to test them to make sure they are delivery fuel through every line.
This is the best way to determine if the expensive injection pump is going to work for old 4 AND 5-cylinder diesel engines that have not run in years. Watch the video below to understand what this kit can do.
We know you will be very happy with the quality of these plastic headlight surrounds!
In this 20-minute instruction video, Kent will show you how to take his short kit and combine it with a tester that you can purchase online to make a leak-free, reliable, and accurate fuel pressure tester for Bosch CIS fuel injection.
It has been over 30 years since the last Mercedes with Bosch C.I.S. fuel injection was manufactured. If you own a 1976 to 1993 Mercedes gas engine with this type of fuel injection, you may have difficulty finding someone to work on your car. In some parts of the country, it may be impossible.

One very minor weakness on the W123 is the glove box door. This is because 2 of the key stress points built into the door are made of plastic. One would be the pin holding the latching mechanism ( Kent already has a repair kit for that - see related products.
Even many old-time Mercedes diesel "experts" are surprised about this part. It is so unknown that it never gets replaced in the oil filter housing, meaning that almost all of them are no longer working today. Watch the video below, and Kent will explain its location and function.
Many of these, especially along the bottom of the hard are hard and brittle and will break when removing the panel. Tilt and twist to remove and install in the holde. Sold in a bag of 24.
In this 17-minute video instruction, Kent walks you through the steps to install his door liner kit using thick, clear, and high-quality plastic sheets on both front and rear doors. A W123 sedan is shown here, but the principles are similar for other chassis.

This kit contains the following new parts:
This is the actual panel you will receive. Notice the empty cutout for the A/C temperature control wheel.
Reads English on one side and German on the other.
These transmission pans get "out of shape" due to over-torquing the bolts. That crushes the stops (see below), and when that happens, it is very hard to get the pan seal not to leak. Your best option if you are doing a transmission service is to replace the pan.
When pressure testing your KE-jetronic fuel injection, you may find you need a really thin wrench to install the small fitting on the right side bottom of the fuel distributor.
Also works on 380SL and 560SL transmissions. Before you think you can easily remove the Bowden cable from the transmission, watch the video below.
This is not a complete set. Study the picture carefully. This is exactly what you will get.
