Unless you have access to a press, you may want to look into getting complete control arms (with ball joints & bushings already pressed in).
When I did mine, I had a bear of a time finding a shop that could do the press work for me (they didn't have plates/fittings that could accomodate the MB bushings)
The dealer quoted me $300 for pressing the parts into the control arms (I think they just didn't want to do it). So I returned the bushings & ball joints, and bought control arms. It's a nice way to go for a DIY mechanic, because then you have all the parts you need when you start the job.
Check out FastLane at the top of the page... I believe the parts for your car will be around $250 per side.
Just some food for thought.
