W208 Convertible top tension cables repair.

Success! It's not really that bad a job to do. I never did have to remove the headliner. I was able to work around it.

Great! Glad it worked for you.

One more question if you don't mind. What did you use to take the handle out? Is it a standard 2 mm allen socket?

[@youtoobe169]

Thanks for this video, it is very helpful. Do you know the part number for the plastic bit that snaps together? I haven't dug into mine yet, but want to have extras in case it's broken.

Hi, sorry I don't know part number but you should be OK I havent see one brake yet. On the handle yes its about 3 mm Allen key, it maybe 2mm. If cable broke at the end you maybe able to fix it if further you would need to put new cables they are about $90.00 from me/be. Good luck on your project.
