SOLD Complete W140 Toolkit + Spare Tire Tub for E500E, $120 shipped

I have for sale a COMPLETE W140 factory tool kit for sale, including the larger round plastic bucket that fits inside the spare tire of the E500E and replaces the "stock" black round bucket.

The larger bucket is REQUIRED for fitment into the E500E, but it and the companion tool-kit are a "plug and play" retrofit for the E500E, and a very nice upgrade. I actually did this upgrade on my own E500 back in about 2004, and have had a W140 kit (not this one) in my trunk ever since.

This tool kit is 100% unused / never used, and all tools are present as shipped from the factory. Tools are all rust-free and blemish-free. Slight trunk-style wear on the top of the black exterior hard plastic shell, but no blemishes or other significant defects to note. Photos attached.

The kit contains the following factory W140 tools:
  1. Heyco sliding-jaw pliers, part 129 581 00 38
  2. FELO screwdriver handle with double-sided flat-blade insert
  3. FELO double-sided Phillips-head insert
  4. Heyco spark plug socket handle
  5. Heyco lug wrench extension for spark plug socket handle
  6. Walter double-sided open-end wrench, 13mm & 17mm, MB marking
  7. Heyco double-sided open-end wrench, 8mm & 10mm, MB marking
  8. MB fuse-removal tool
  9. Aluminum wheel installation pin
$120 shipped via US Priority Mail in the continental USA. $40 of this price is shipping cost, because it is a large box and everything will be well-packed. $80 is the cost of the tool kit + bucket.

You don't very often see COMPLETE, PRISTINE, RUST-FREE W140 tool kits + the larger W140 round bucket for sale as a great E500E upgrade, so this is a very nice deal.

Again, rust-free and COMPLETE tool kits are difficult to find. This one is in EXC- condition, so it is even more of a bonus.

Cheers,
Gerry

Need some info on how to install it.
I will create a detailed HOW-TO on this. It's actually way, way over-due.

It is a very very involved procedure, and takes a fair bit of finesse to correctly install the bucket and tool-kit correctly.

The biggest issue that I see with these installations of the tool-kits, is that people don't properly rotate the tools in the foam tool-holder niches, so that the MB and/or manufacturer's logos are showing correctly.

I will also ship the tool-kit with a pair of white gloves in the large niche.
