Description

Offered here is an exceptionally rare Glass Panoramic Hardtop for the Mercedes-Benz R129 SL (1990–2002) — one of the most desirable factory options ever produced for this iconic grand touring roadster.

Designed specifically for the legendary Mercedes-Benz R129, this genuine OEM removable hardtop replaces the standard painted aluminum roof with a beautifully integrated tinted glass panel, dramatically enhancing both exterior presence and interior ambiance.

Manufactured to original factory standards by Mercedes-Benz, the panoramic hardtop maintains full structural integrity, proper weather sealing, and factory-level refinement.


A Rare and Highly Sought-After Factory Option

While all R129 SL models were delivered with a removable hardtop, the panoramic glass version was an optional upgrade produced in far smaller numbers. As a result, original examples are increasingly difficult to source — especially in clean, collector-grade condition.

Compatible with:

  • SL300

  • SL320

  • SL500

  • SL600

(Professional fitment verification recommended for early vs. late production differences.)
