Kind of weird though, theoretically they shouldn't fit, right? It's a 1991 300E (2.6) and the 94 E420 was a V8 i'm pretty sure, unless the chassis's on the 90/91-95 are the same and the chassis on the earlier models are different.
I got everything at the yard today except the 12v feed in wiring harness which was tied into this huge bundle of wires and went under the brake booster and I didn't even want to bother, I'll just order it from the dealer tomorrow so I'll have it for the install day on Tuesday or Thursday. Everything with the install looks pretty straight forward, the job looks not bad at all, the part that was most difficult at the yard was the seats on odd positions making it difficult/impossible to reach the back bolts, and since they're electric and the car had no power it presented a wee bit of a problem. Thankfully the yard worker had a battery and he helped me get power to the motors and move them all the way forward and up and not to mention these seats happen to be in thee most disgusting car, trash everywhere and sludge on the carpet, back carpets smelling like pee... ugh....
