Upholstery FAQs - Material Sample Colors

All our early Mercedes leather upholstery sets are made in substitute leather. Roser, the original leather manufacturer, is no longer in business and thus original Roser leather no longer exists. We have duplicated some of the original Roser colors using the original smooth grain level.

Factory cloth for the 300SL is still available!
E-mail us or Call 1-800-222-9577 if interested

300SL Cloth

These seat kits are manufactured in California and are sewn using the original style and dimensions. This is important to note because the seat pads underneath the upholstery is also susceptible to wear, tear and shrinkage and thus your old seat pad might not fit. We recommend professional installers to rebuild your horsehair pads to regain the feel of the original seat.

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

Carpet FAQs - Material Sample Colors

All 300 SL's originally came carpeted in squareweave. The front floors however were originally rubber. Our carpet sets authentically retrim all the areas originally carpeted including the seat backs. Each carpet piece is bound in matching cloth. The original rubber mats are available for sale, but it can also be replaced with carpet supplements to give that fully carpeted feeling.
