Fans of classic cars like to dress up their antique classics with brand new body accessories that make the car look brand new. Those who love to purchase these cars and restore them look for accessories like seat covers, boot covers, tonneau covers, headliners, seat pads, carpet kits, sun visors, door skins, and convertible tops. Naturally, they want these parts to be durable and functional without losing any of the aesthetic qualities that make these items worthy of the Mercedes-Benz name. The add-on part has to look like it was a factory original and not some extra part that is obviously made by another manufacturer.
Owners of the classic Mercedes 190SL, which was produced from 1955 to 1963, have the option of Purchasing A Mercedes Convertible Top that is made from a durable canvas. Looks do matter, so the entire top is cut from the same fabric so that it looks uniform all the way around. The color is consistent and the pattern matches. The stitching is just as important for function as well as keeping rain and moisture out. All seams are heat sealed just like the original cover. The plastic rear window is made of a heavy-duty plastic, and it’s stitched into the cover.
There may be a reason to buy a new Mercedes Convertible Top for a newer model Mercedes-Benz, too, like the Mercedes-Benz CLK 320, CLK 430, CLK 55 models that were produced from 1999 to 2003. You can find these in factory original condition, cut with precision using computer-aided technology. Again, the each cover will be cut from the same bolt of cloth so that the color is consistent throughout and the pattern matches all the way around. The deck seams are heat sealed to ensure they are water-repellent. Tops for these models have an option for a glass window instead of plastic. Manufacturers provide various warranties, but for the price of the investment, it’s not unreasonable to look for one with a five year warranty, although the warranty may not extend to a new owner if the person who purchased the convertible top decides to sell the car.
