The wiring harness labor operations are misleading at first glance.

104's are a solid 3-4 hr DIY job.
119's a little more.
1994-95 C220 is a real bear, very close quarters. Buried under the intake.
Don't undertake that task if you are in a time crunch.
It WILL take longer than you expect.

The V-12's are a piece of cake.
Lays right on top.

Note--the M119s often have a suspect second,deteriorating harness for the
alternator/starter/oil level sensor. Less expensive, and easier to change,
but worth a look while inspecting the injector harness.

We always check them both, and the second harness is needed approx 1/2 the time.

We have seen no repeat failures of harnesses, but only time will tell.
