Sorry for the delay, not been on here for a while.
Yes the 6 speed swap works fine, no issues at all. It needed a custom gearbox crossmember, and I used the gearlever from a BMW in the end.

Hello, I have purchased a 6 speed manual from a 2002 C230. I am wondering about the speedometer drive. Will this be a problem matching up to my 92 300td euro?

I just went over and looked at the trans. Looks like an electrical plug about where I would expect to find a speedo drive on one with a mechanical drive. So maybe it will just plug in.

I've got a 300SEL that I want to manual swap, and a 6-speed sounds even more fun.
You might still find issues with the speedo calibration, and I don't think there's a way to calibrate the stock speedo yourself. There's always the DakotaDigital module that's available out there.

I cannot imagine that is the case.

I believe syncro's are bronze or steel with a friction material lining.
