As Mercedes-Benz specialists at d:class, we were very excited when this job came through our email inbox. Not only a fantastic example of a W112, but a modified one. Those who know us will be familiar with our roots in the modified car scene, so this job is right up our street.


This is a similar job to one we completed in recent years, a W108 belonging to our good friend, Dougie, with another large Mercedes-Benz on airride suspension with a custom d:class interior. Feel free to check that out here.

This is how the vehicle arrived to us, with a near stripped interior, but still featuring the previously retrimmed seats.


The job was simple, create a complete bespoke interior which featuring the correct basket weave seat centres, fabricate new door cards and a centre console, create and install a new headlining, and brand new carpets.


The leather used in this retrim was black Muirhead Lustrana which is some of the best leather we get the pleasure of working with. The basket weave seat centres were created with the same leather. Custom flutes were made with our selection of foams to create plump yet reinforced seat centres. The door cards, arm rests, B pillars, centre console, parcel shelf, and more were all retrimmed in this luscious material.


The Headlining was custom-made from black vinyl which covers all the way back to the rear parcel shelf, doubling as a C pillar. We fitted the woods for our customer which are found on the A pillars, door tops, and dashboard.

As mentioned in the Seat section, all of our lasering was accomplished by Chris and Marc from Formation Industries. The tartan pattern was a perfect replica, even the shape and texture of a real piece of tartan material was achieved... somehow, but that's Formation Industries. We have since had samples come through with this pattern in a variety of colours which we now offer as part of any retrims. We are not limited to replicating tartan, but have previously recreated houndstooth which was lasered into distressed leather for another customer. Got a pattern in mind? get in touch and we can make it happen. Not only did Formation Industries laser our seats, but this pattern was repeated onto the headlining and door cards. The dashboard saw multiple SRS Airbag emblems lasered into the dash top and lower dash panels. The floor mats also feature "SLR HDK" logos repeatedly creating a pattern.
