Offered to serious collectors is this Mercedes-Benz w 126 chassis custom Palomino tan leather covered driver's side lower dash knee bolster.  Ultra rare would be an understatement.  This was taken off a 1988 560SEL that had a full custom leather interior (including a leather and suede upper dashboard, custom leather door panel inserts, custom seat upholstery pattern, and additional front door wood trim)  From my research I am fairly certain this was crafted by Duchatelet as part of their "Carat" package, however I cannot find any markings or part numbers on the knee bolster to indicate it was made my Duchatelet.  I can say the craftsmanship is exquisite, the leather is beautifully fitted especially around all the curves of the part.

The knee bolsters were not found on the Euro / Rest of World cars so to have this on your European Carat edition w126 would be truly amazing. There are two very handy storage areas on the top of the bolster perfect for cell phones, pens, etc.  The leather is of very high quality and can easily be color matched to your interior if necessary.  

One of the two plastic inserts are missing (the longer left side part), this is a standard Mercedes Benz part that is easy to find, in fact I may be able to provide this part to the buyer pending a check of my parts inventory. 

Add a truly unique item to your Classic Mercedes Benz w126 S Class.  Please see my other items for more hard to find and unique Mercedes-Benz parts.

Dorel makes child-safety items under brand names such as Safety 1st and Cosco.

Four big pickups get low marks in crash tests

Wed, 11 Feb 2009

Four 2009 full-sized pickups got low marks in side-impact crash tests by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, a research group for auto insurers. Crash protection is "poor" in crew-cab versions of the Chevrolet Silverado and Nissan Titan without side-impact airbags, according to test results the institute released on Wednesday. The Dodge Ram with standard side-impact airbags got only a "marginal" rating, the institute said.
