Sunroof Mounted Ram-Air Scoops for Mercedes Benz W123 

Thank you for watching. You can contact Mason at his email address: mrkimball288@gmail.com and he will be happy to sell you one or two.

Thanks for watching. Yes, the scoops made more noise than just the sunroof opened that much. Yes, the increase in airflow was significant with windows open or closed. With the sunroof opened just that little bit there was insignificant air flow. However, at 50 MPH and higher I could close all windows and just have the scoops and the noise was less than with sunroof opened all the way and windows opened slightly. I was trying them out, and I'm not sure I would use them as an everyday convenience as nothing beats a functioning AC.

Just got my scoop today. It brings in a surprisingly large amount of air, almost too much at high speeds. I would be interested to see a full length scoop, say 32 inches, with three built-in air channels that could be regulated with a flap.

Good question. This product I tested is targeted for those with non-working AC and those with a sunroof and no AC as it will fit all W123 models. I think that by 1984 the W123 300D Turbo Diesel sold in the USA were all optioned to the max. They all came with AC, electric sunroof was optional, and electric windows in the USA. Thank you for watching.

​@@kensshowtellgood to know! I do have a German import 230te though

@@VeryMuchSaab I see. that is the difference. The Germans ordering their cars back in the day were more frugal with the "extras." I have a 1971 280 SE that is a USA car but ordered as if the original owner was German. It has AC.; however, the windows are manual, and the transmission is a four-speed manual on the floor. So interesting.

​@@kensshowtellForgot to mention my car also has manual windows and a 4spd.
