This Mercedes-Benz glass panoramic removable hardtop is finished in Black (040) and was built for use on 1990-2002 R129 series cars of the era. The top features a steel frame, a glass panoramic roof with a retractable sunshade, glass windows, and Black vinyl trim. This R129 SL hardtop is now offered with a stand and cover from the seller in Marietta, Georgia and can be picked up in person. Buyers may choose to use a service such as uShip to have the items picked up in person and shipped.
The top is finished in Black (040) and features a panoramic glass roof and glass windows with painted steel bodywork along the frame. The original Siglia glass markings from the factory are present on the windows and visible in the gallery below. The seller notes he had the top professionally repainted in the original color by a reputable paint shop because of some light blemishes upon delivery.
The interior of the top features a retractable sunshade and grab handles on both the driver and passenger sides. The sunshade operates smoothly and extends/retracts as designed without issue. Photos of the sunshade in both positions are provided in the gallery. There is a small rip in the shade that doesn’t affect usability. The seller notes they had all of the inner vinyl panels redyed in factory Black because some pieces had an ashy finish.
The non-glass interior surfaces are trimmed in Black vinyl and photos showing the condition of the interior surfaces are provided in the gallery. The top has been tested and all latch points operate correctly when mated with an R129 chassis vehicle. Rubber and felt trim points appear in good condition with no major deterioration or obvious wear. All of the glass has a 35% smoked tint that is nano-ceramic and UV repellent.
This rare pano top has no chips, cracks or scratches in the glass. The top is accompanied by a stand and cover and is now offered by the seller in Marietta, Georgia and items must be picked up in person. Buyers may choose to use a service such as "uShip" or "DHL" to have the items picked up in person and shipped. Packaging will be the responsibility of the buyer or shipping company.

Hey there everyone. Sorry for the late reply. I’m out of town during this bid period. I have a friend looking into a price to pack this up and ship it for all that have asked. Hope to have this by bid day. Also, I won’t be able to be there this week for an inspection. I think I have a video somewhere that I can upload. Hope this helps. Look forward to this bid!!

Would it be possible to come by and inspect the top?
@polishadonis This one was listed prior but now it's up for No Reserve....I can't imagine it won't sell given those terms lol. Compared to the number or non-pano tops out there, I'd say it's still pretty darn rare. It was quite rare when they were new as a small percentage of cars came with it. @smcase great seeing the cars in the background....tell me you're an enthusiast without actually telling me!
Two things. First, I don’t think the vocabulary that it is a rare option is accurate anymore. There is always one for sale on eBay. Currently five of them. Second, I seen this one for sale already. Hopefully you will sell it this time.
@1160361200 Thanks for asking! This top will fit your '99 without any issues. Let me know if I can answer any other questions.
My R129 is build 1999. Is this roof for late models?
