[R129 SL] R129LIST Digest, Vol 36, Issue 3

[Egon Doyer]

Hello Jan,

First enjoy your time in the Bungalow and have a Happy and Healthy 2008!

I believe that my CD charger cables goes on the left hand side of the  
car and not through the tunne console, but I may be wrong. In the  
eantime I decided to buy a new Kenwood radio and disc charger so I can  
use the old cable.

It is a pity because I really like the Becker Mexico and I have it  
already about 12 years first being installed in my first 280 SE.
On the other hand I don't want to go through the hassle of pulling new  
cables.

Best regards,
Egon

Another flying and driving Dutchman....
