Thanks for the response, sounds encouraging. I would have assumed that most part numbers (except for engine and transmission parts) of a US spec ML320 might be compatible or at least would be very close to the ML230 Euro cars.

One of the first things that will need replaced is the whole dashboard (minus instruments but including the glove box), which in this ML230 is a mess due to age and sun exposure, so it would be important to know if the ML320 same year (1999) dashboard might be fully compatible. I also might consider replacing the center console as well.

Anyone has any suggestions on where I could get a used dashboard in decent shape? The closer to Florida the better as it will need to be sent to my freight forwarder.
