Yes you are correct on version coding. The same modules can be used on several different models. In this case, maybe you've noticed the climate control panels between a W202 C Class and W210 E Class are usually virtually identical, then you throw into the mix that cars will vary from country to country, yeah sometimes on a global scale the part you are buying could be used in either model, depends on where in the world you are. SO, someone needs to go into the control module with the computer and select which model the new control module is being used in. To expand just a bit, about the only difference in the climate control panel in the USA between the 210 and 202 is in the USA the 210 has charcoal filter, so yes there IS a difference, but in another country the 210 may not have charcoal filter, at least as a standard feature, so the control panel may be the same as the USA 202. Heck in some countries, believe it or not, air conditioning is even an option!
