Mercedes-Benz W113 280SL Pagoda Carpet Retrim

Harry Pitcher • May 18, 2022

A common sight to see at d:class HQ currently is the number of Pagodas we have on-site. In spring we normally get an influx of vehicles such as the R129, R107 and W113 as we head into summer. Never before have we had seven of the same vehicle on sight, all of which are in various stages of restorations. Keep an eye out on our social media platforms and of course here on our blog for even more content and information.


This lovely example of a W113 came to d:class for a carpet retrim as the original carpet had become worn and deteriorated. We have replaced the original carpet with a grey twin loop and black vinyl binding to fit in with the rest of the interior. Additionally, the back of the seats have been trimmed also as these are carpeted from the factory. Last but not least, the interior metal trim has been polished up as these had begun pitting from their age. The rest of the interior is surprisingly in very good condition and did not require any further work.

SLR HDK | Lasering

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.
