I always recommend buying these kinds of service parts through your local MB dealer, because you know they will be of the highest quality.
Hi Aaron,

Is there a particular reason you would suggest buying these items from a dealer?

Here at Fastlane, or one of several other sources, one can get the exact same OEM parts for FAR less than dealer prices! I ALWAYS use top-quality, OEM parts, and I have NEVER bought them from a dealer and paid dealer prices.

Just wondering...
Mike
