[W126 Coupe] wood refinishing

[Shayegan, Richard]

Dealership. I think they said $263. I don't have seat heaters and it's
an 85 so the price is probably different from an 86 with seat heaters. I
called Madera, they said best case scenario $130 for the wood around the
shifter and worst case $165. The wood on the door would be $90. Not
bad...but I need to save up some more cash (somehow, IIRC, the wood on
the dash and the wood around the climate control has stayed perfect). I
actually saw an ad for Madera in Hemmings. Their website is
