When removing the Steering wheel on a 1977 Mercedes 450SL I was told to just pull pad off front of steering wheel but does it have small tips that just push in when reinstalling it?

Answer 1

Yes, the steering wheel pad on a 1977 Mercedes 450SL typically has small tabs or clips that secure it in place. When reinstalling the pad, these tabs need to align properly to ensure a snug fit. It's important to gently press the pad back onto the wheel until you hear or feel it click into place, confirming that the tabs are fully engaged. Be cautious during removal and reinstallation to avoid damaging the clips.
