The original MB-Tex seat and trim vinyl fitted to 1980-1998 Mercedes-Benz cars - the W123, W126 S-Class, W201 190E, W124 E-Class and the R107 and R129 SL. 17 factory colors in a smooth finish, most with an embossed twin. 54 inch width, sold by the linear yard. Swatch samples available for any color.
About the finish
The classic MB-Tex grain of the 1980s. The smooth material went on the bolsters, door panels and trim, and the embossed material (the 72160-76160 codes) went in the seat inserts. Where a color exists in both, both are on this page. Order both swatches to see the pair together.
Which colors suit your car
Black, Blue, Gray, Cream, Cream Beige, Brazil, Palomino, Middle Red, Brick (the factory's Henna), Saddle and Parchment are the core 1980s palette of the W123, W126, W201 and W124; Olive, Avocado and Sienna are the earlier, rarer shades; Ash Gray, Java and Shell arrived with the R129 SL in the 1990s.

Please read before you order
The color matches on this page are our best guesses, built from factory color charts and the supplier codes the restoration trade uses. They are not guaranteed to match your interior. Vinyl varies by batch, your original trim has aged, and printed color charts are approximate. We do not accept returns of cut vinyl because the color does not match your interior. That is exactly what samples are for: order a swatch of any color, hold it against your trim in daylight, and then order the vinyl.
