[W126 Coupe] mud flaps

[Kelly Frink]

With my cars wiring I think I need 20 Pints of Vodka.  I was cleaning the
rear seats this past weekend and as I remove the back seats the wiring under
them is melted.

Oh, for wiring, start with a pint of Killian's then no matter what turns up
it doesn't much matter.

Kelly, bad idea.  They only serve to accumulate salt, mud, etc and start 
a rot process right where you plant them.  Aesthetically not a fit for 
any MB in my opinion.
 
Wherever you place a screw in fenders, body panels, etc...as in the 
chrome fender strips many apply, you will inevitably have rust.  So, no 
to both.
 
By the way, there are rubber inserts that protect the rear fender wells 
where the bumper joins the body to prevent debris entering the rear 
fender vent area and rail support for rear bumpers.  These are simply 
pressed in place on a grooved channel.  No screws, all rubber.  So you 
already have a sort of rear rubber mud protective cover in place on your 
MB.
