Hello MERCEDES BENZ 170 friends
Who can give me the part number for the right and left "STEINSCHLAGSCHUTZ" that can be installed on the rear wing of the 170 S "jnnenlenker"(sedan)
See added photos
Thank you
BERNARD
Hi
Most of the 170S sold in Sweden are equipped with these plates.
I think that the plates are made in Sweden and has no DB-Number.
Your photo is probably showing a car with a Swedish history.
The plates are hard to find in a good shape and you must beware of that the the 170S and 170Sb has different type of rear fenders and then also different plates.
Salut Bernard, je pense que ces plaques anti-gravillons sont très difficiles à trouver aussi en Suède, particulièrement celles en bon état. Elles sont faites en tôle d’aluminium assez épaisse (environ 2 mm). Elles ne sont pas profilées, seulement façonnées après les gardeboues. Je vous conseille de demander chez un tôlier d’en faire des nouvelles. Cela sera probablement moins cher (et moins compliqué) qu’en acheter des usées, qui sans doute nécessiteraient aussi du travail considérable pour devenir présentables.
(Auf Deutsch: Sind auch in Schweden schwierig zu bekommen, wenigstens in gutem Zustand. Billiger und einfacher neue aus dickem Alu-Blech machen lassen.)
Thank you Jimattsson
I saw your message and I answered in "allgemeines zum 170S"
This request is for Lars (Braveman)
__In order to allow rebuilding of these "steinschagschutz" manufactured in Sweden(?) ,could you please:
- send me detailled photos of these parts installed on your (beautiful) 170 Sb
- give me the dimensions and thickness
- tell me how they are fastened on the rear fenders ( drawing will be helpfull)
Thank you very much for your help ;Lars
Best regards from France

First you must check which type of fender you have.
The 170S has the black fender shown in my photo.
170Sb, 170DS, 170S-V, 170S-D, 220 (W187) all cars with Hypoid rear axle has the blue fender.
It is difficult to se the difference if you don´t have them together.
They are also different at front where to apply the plates.
I have one 170S right side plate extra and perhaps a friend of mine has both the right and the left.
He will search and reply in a short while I hope.
Regards
Lars
