this information is awesome and intriguing. please take a look at the attachments i have here:
280CE Died While Driving, Now Won't Start - Need HELP Quick!, post number 10. the first one is for the box that i want to get, with the updated technology that says it only fits the later 280CE's. the second one is for the one that fits my chassis number. the one i attached to this thread is the one that fits the later chassis number. notice the different part number.
if what you say is true, any of these would work in my car. the only reason they changed is for fitment, not because of the different distributor caps and rotors that are part of the later 280CE's? if you can 100% confirm this i would be incredibly pleased, as i could get a WAY cheaper replacement part with new technology. i'll figure out a way to make it fit in the car, i just want to make sure it'll work.
if you can't tell, i'm new to all of this stuff...

So,look for a W114 ,116,123 or 126 for a box. It's simply a transistor switching box. Nothing complicated in them at all.
