What W210 parts shall I snag from parts car?
I guy near me is parting out a 98 E300 with 123,000 miles on it (due to a "fried computer"). I thought it might be a good opportunity to stock up on some parts for a rainy day since I own two of these (one with 86k the other with 158k). The only thing I need right now is a duovalve (starting to act up on the 99)....but I'm glad to stockpile parts I'll eventually need.
What would you grab if you were in my shoes? I'm especially interested in "likely to fail/expensive to replace" items.

Snag the passenger side seat bottom cover for me if it's leather and especially if it's mushroom.

Thanks for the input. Although I do have a tendency to buy stuff I don't need (suspect I'm not the only one around here with that problem!

In terms of modules, I wonder if anything other than the ECU and the ignition is tied to that particular car.

Handy to have the wireless key entry unit by the mirror those are expensive units if your remote decides to fail on you. Rear door window regulators come in handy as does the fuel sending unit.

Saw the car...along with a high mileage 92 300D that is also being parted out. Both in pretty rough shape. Found the old registration with 213,xxx miles written on it...so it's higher mileage than I was led to believe. Thinking about getting the rims for my snows....wonder what a good price would be.
