removing glow plugs 98-99 etc e300

have a question here

getting concerned about the glow plug situation on my new car after researching this

how many people on here that had this done by a reputable indie MERCEDES mechanic or the mercedes dealer --that does mercedes diesels all day and has all the mercedes tools they need to do it

has had the mechanic break off glow plugs in the head/car? not be able to get them out, have to pull the head, etc

it seems most of these posts - although not all- are about people doing it themselves

i know the forums are mostly for people working on their own cars, and i am sure most of you know more about your e300 than these other mechanics

but i dont and when i need to change the glow plugs it will be the dealer or my other mercedes specialist mechanic

wondering how paranoid i need to be about it going wrong

i will swing by my indie shop and ask him about this, he loves these cars and this is the model he wanted me to buy when i ask him which 95-2000 year diesels to look at , thinks the motors are great etc
