hey, that makes two of us! i just installed my Bilstein HDs yesterday. in my case, i swapped out a completely blown Sachs shock on the drivers side, and a leaking Bilstein comfort on the passenger side.

much more taut ride, but doesn't take away too much from the Mercedes "experience."

needless to say, it feels like i went from driving an old land-yacht-cadillac to a feisty little German sports car!
