have recently bought an 17 yr old 280 SL, which has never had its hard top removed or the soft top raised. I have just noticed an electric cable running from behind the drivers door to a plug on the ceiling of the hard top. Does anybody know its purpose as I cannot see any possible function for it? Email replies please
