[W126 Coupe] Power window motors

[Yousef nazzal]

Dear Axel

Great thanks on the advice ill definitely go through it since am already
there and do not wish to do it again ;).. ive seen a few posts regarding the
attachment points from Junno .. am just worried if am gonna be able to put
things back the way it was correctly.

Regarding sound deadening materials.. the the main problem i face in this
part of the world is finding materials.. for instance Dynamat, Raamat ,
etc.. is not available here (Dubai) and shipping would double my costs.. i
only found AODEA deadening kits .. some Japanese brand .. i dunno if its
good or bad ..each kit costs  approx 75 USD and i get the materials shown in
the image.. i just hope it works well.. else it would be
really disappointing after all the work..

haven't had difficulties with the dash ive reached to the part where is need
to disconnect the AC vent cables.. but a quick look showed that it wont be
tough .. except for the center sliding cable.. but that isnt working
correctly in the first place so lets see how that goes.. having that
mentioned .. there is clear evidence that someone has removed the dash
before.. broken clips and some double sided tape etc..

Interesting things i found: 1) 100 Yen coin (2) lots of dust and dirt from
Japan.. (3) a spider web some where near the steering column.. no signs of
life yet..

ill do a write up once am done and have all the photos compiled.. for the
sake of sharing :P
