Pics and answered questions

Here are the pictures requested. This whole oddessy started when I went to get a replacement for the missing corner light. After getting the one for a 85 300, I right away noticed that it was not the correct one. I then went to the dealship and they said that it was a W124, which is strange because the W124 was introduced in 86 apperantly. After some research, it is now proclaimed an Euro version (which explains the km instead of mi on the spedo). The transmission is a 5 speed manual, and may I state this car is SMOOOOOOTH. What I estimated at 50ish mph, I was clocked at 68 (thanks to the state trooper that just gave me a warning). The VIN is WDB1241301A05XXXX which pulls up a 2001 300 E.

PS are there any ideas on how to make our US tags fit on the Euro trunk? My plate is too high and hits the part just above the bumper.
