Help needed with 280sel w108 4.5L engine
 

I recently purchased a Mercedes W108 280SEL 4.5 V8 from an auction and I'm in the process of restoring it. Unfortunately, some electrical components are missing under the washing fluid tank in the engine compartiment. I need someone who owns a similar car or has detailed knowledge of this model, and is willing to help me identify the missing electrical parts, his assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Shouldn't be too much to it regarding electrical. Check here: https://nemigaparts.com/cat_spares/epc/mercedes/1/m/117984/67h/?chasis=10806868F

This is a free version of the Mercedes Electronic Parts Catalog that shows the breakdown of most of the parts groups.

The following link will take you to the master group page for your particular model (W108.068 - 280SEL 4.5): https://nemigaparts.com/cat_spares/epc/mercedes/1/fg/108068/68f/

The only thing I can recall is a terminal block for, if memory serves, the wires to the ECU, starter solenoid, and something else - maybe the alternator? Not sure. I don't have a 4.5 anymore, just this 20 year old picture.

Feel free to contact me I have a w109 with the 4.5 I can send you pictures.
