Hi, attempting to replace the B-pillar leather trim on my 1990 W126. I believe the fabric code is #265 as per the attached VIN plate. I'd appreciate confirmation, and where I can obtain the new leather. Thanks.
The B pillar material is not leather. It is a vinyl product that looks like leather. Find a vendor/store that sells material for recovering car/boat or upholstery products and I am sure you will find a match. If you don't find an exact match you can color/dye the new material once installed. SEM has a spray product that matches your color. I recently recovered B pillars in black and for about $15 bought enough material to do about 5 total sets. Just find an outlet, take your old piece with you and you should find a match. Good luck.
My upholstery guy says he thinks this vinyl and colour is probably still available from MB. He was going to find out for me. (I have the same colour.)
Any similar standard vinyl will be cheaper and easier though I'm sure.
