Mercedes SL R107 convertible top black

Mercedes SL R107 convertible top

The Softtop belt

•     With a pair of belts to match the interior color of the hood. It is included in the price and is attached.

    The rubber bands in both belts are also included in the hood.

The top fabric

    This convertible top for the Mercedes SL R107 is made of Dralon fabric like your Mercedes SL.
    The original Mercedes 107 consisted of the coarser Classic top fabric. The underside of this classic hood material was equipped with a cotton fabric, which in some vehicles rots very quickly.
    We use the current Dralon fabric with a PE lower fabric for the Mercedes R107 convertible top. The PE sub-fabric of this top material has a much longer shelf life. The cut of our convertible top, in the less stretchy Dralon fabric with PE underside, was adapted by us and fits perfectly to the Mercedes R107 top. The behavior of the convertible top material in the airstream when driving fast has also improved as a result. It is tighter than Classic top fabric and stays taut.

Execution

    These Mercedes SL R107 convertible tops are designed like the original in every detail.
    The convertible top for your Mercedes SL R107 is ready for assembly, nothing has to be sewn.
    For the convertible top shop we produce the Mercedes convertible top domestically, in high quality, for your vehicle. (Made in Germany)

The disks

    Like the original, the convertible top Mercedes 107 has 3 rear windows.
    A clear lens color is available for your SL R107 roadster top.
    The windows are stamped with the approval number valid for film windows for vehicles.
    The window films used are of the same quality and strength as the original convertible top. The corner panes are much thicker than the usual 1mm window films. This reduces the creasing of these corner panes.

The sealing rubber

    The Mercedes R 107 convertible top has rubber sealing lips over the doors. These are firmly glued on and should be exchanged, even if they still appear good. A later replacement could seriously affect the convertible top. You can find these rubbers in the recommendation list below.
    The convertible top is glued at the front and back. The glue positions are easy to recognize by the sewing method.

The Mercedes R107 was built over 18 years from 1971 as the successor to the so-called Pagoda. What is striking compared to the predecessor is that the headlights are arranged horizontally instead of vertically. The convertible top hadn't changed much. The linkage is very stable and completely chrome-plated, which sets this Mercedes roadster top apart from other convertible tops. It was also one of the simplest and lightest convertible tops in its day. You could open it to others very quickly and easily. As with its predecessor, the convertible top disappears in the closed top compartment.

The vehicle itself was ahead of its time when it was introduced. Compared to its predecessor, it got a body that was not simply derived from the sedan. It was a new design. With this new construction, care was taken to achieve a very stiff body, which benefited the driving behavior.

Due to its crumple behavior in a collision, you gained significantly better passive safety. For the sake of safety in the event of a rollover, the A-pillar (windshield) was specially designed and made of stronger materials. In the USA, which was the main sales market, they got approval for roof strength without having to install a targa bar.
