I have a line on a excellent 240D parts car to maintain my 300TD. I already need a hood ( due to an unfortunate garage parking incident... ) and really dig the steelies with covers on the 240.
I have a temperamental and currently non functioning electronic airflow control system in the 300. I am not concerned about air conditioning as I live in Canada where we need cooler that outside air 2 months of the year. So, to the distinguished members:
1 Is it possible to swap the 2 systems? I know anything is possible, but is it practical and do-able for a DIY guy with time and patience?
2. Ditto for the manual windows? I have both the rear windows in the wagon MIA and thought that changing the mechanisms may also help with the lack of window switches on the centre console of the replacement 240 centre wood panel. Does the wagon rear doors share exactly the same system as the sedan?
3. Down the road, does a 4 speed 240 manual box hook straight up to the 300TD's motor?
I am in the process of replacing the really good black Tex seat skins in the wagon with a red leather replacement. If anyone needs a wagon interior, let me know.
