[W126 Coupe] Seat Leather

Fri Feb 17 23:25:43 EST 2006

If your dealer will sell to you below cost please give me their number :-P
Is this the dealer around DC?  If it's ASC I've talked/dealt w/ Richard @
the parts desk many a time.  The seat bottom for your SE ranges from 885 to
930 depending on which of the 4 colour available  The backrest lists for
1024....!!

Dealer cost is a few hundred under each of the above prices.  You might want
to double check with them..if they'll commit to the price they gave you call
me and I'll order a few sets ;-)
