1996 Mercedes SL500 R129 Project Heidi Part 5: Taillights, Trunk, Rust Removal, and Antenna Gaskets
Рет қаралды 2,289
Күн бұрынProject Heidi has mor secrets as we start working on the rear of the car and uncover hidden rust. We remove, polish, and restore both original taillights only to discover one is beyond repair. What's better than two antenna gaskets? A German designed convertible has got to have two as we make quick work of some small items with big responsibilities.
Parts List:
Mercedes 129 827 03 98 Antenna Plastic Joint
Mercedes 129 827 02 98 Antenna Seal

Given the colour of the fluid, I'd recommend a flush/change 😊

Thanks for the comment and for watching the channel. You’re right about the fluid reservoir in the hydraulic pump. The top is the last scheduled major component for Heidi. The blinker fluid needs changed too! 🤣

Curious, what are you using to polish the plastic parts of the lens?

Great question and thanks for watching. I’m a Meguiars guy. I used Meguiars Ultimate Polish and a 4” buffing pad by hand on the lenses.
