This comprehensive set of jewel-like parts by Model Motorcars will add extra details to your Pocher Mercedes model, and correct many inaccuracies as well. Specify K91 body style or K74/82 etc. when ordering below. Each part originates from a hand crafted master based on original Mercedes cars, photos, and factory plans. The parts are then cast in brass or bronze, plated where applicable, and hand polished. Each Pocher Mercedes transkit includes the following (click links or any photo to enlarge):
Please note that all parts are individually mastered original castings by Model Motorcars, and replace or improve upon the original kit parts. They are not inferior copies or recasts of the Pocher parts. You may find cheaper, ill-fitting "transkit" parts for sale, but these are the best. There really is a difference.

Mercedes cast resin seats
These resin seats are a direct replacement for the frames, springs and leatherette that come in the K-74/80/82/85/90/93 Mercedes kits (not applicable to K91). If you do not want to learn how to build a seat with springs and leatherette, or want your seats to look like the real thing but you do not want to use a sewing machine, these seats are for you. Can be painted, or cover them with leather. They are easy to retrofit to existing models and have recesses cast into their rear surfaces to accept the Pocher seat frames (not included). Each mercedes detail set includes two complete resin replacement seats: two backs and two bottom cushions.
