SEAT UPHOLSTERY KITS
----------------------------------------------------------------

Upholstery FAQs - Material Sample Colors

Most W116 sedans were originally upholstered in either MB-Tex vinyl or German leather. We have most of the factory colors for both materials which we can use to manufacture the seat kits. Some European models used cloth/velour but we only have a limited selection of this material.

Our seat kits will be delivered to you pre-sewn and can be installed by an amateur restorer but they are still more appropriate in the hands of a professional installer. The reasons being, no instructions are included (since they are manufactured when ordered and not mass produced) and any installation of seat covers requires removal of the old seat covers. Also, most old seat pads will either require replacement or re-building/re-padding which also requires an installer.

E-mail us or Call 1-800-222-9577 to order or for more info

FRONT SEAT

Our front seat kits include pre-sewn backrest, cushion, headrest and back panel covers for both seats. The covers for the optional armrest and center console are sold separately. We do recommend ordering all the covers at the same time for a perfect color match.

Part # 116-1043: '72-'73 W116 Sedan
Part # 116-1245: '74-'75 W116 Sedan
Part # 116-1545: '76-'80 W116 Sedan

The armrest covers are sold separately!

REAR SEAT

Rear seats did not change over the course of the W116 lifespan. The seat kit would include the backrest, cushion and center armrest cover. The only model that's slightly different is the 450SEL 6.9 which has a plain band at the top of the rear seat where the headrests are.

Part # 116-0619: '72-'80 W116 Sedan (not 6.9)
Part # 116-0620: '75-'80 450SEL 6.9

The headrest covers (if you have them) are sold separately!

SEAT PADS

Seat Pads are what gives the seats their shape. For the seat cover to look and feel exactly like the original, the seat pad must also be the same as the original. Since seat pads are also susceptible to wear, tear and shrinkage, they may require replacement or at least be re-built by an installer.

Most of the W116 rubberized horsehair pads are still available. Availability of seat pads are always subject to change.

CARPET SETS
----------------------------------------------------------------

Carpet FAQs - Material Sample Colors

Early W116 models were originally carpeted in German Import Loop while later models were carpeted in Feintuft Velour (FTV). We offer either material or a cheaper Domestic Loop for all W116 carpet sets which include all areas carpeted in your car. For 1977 to 1980 models, a separate supplemental carpet set in backless FTV is available for the under-dash area and the kick panels. Loop carpet cannot be backless which is what is needed in those areas.
