Help! I Need to Source an R107 Subframe!
Calling all cars! After a week of going back and forth with Mercedes Customer Care, they have agreed that if I can find a source for an NOS or otherwise unused Mercedes R107 subframe, they will still honor the recall. The issue here should be obvious--the part has not been manufactured for a number of years. With that said, surely some shop or parts dealer somewhere has this part (MB 1073300942). Price is not a factor, as MB would be paying for it. This is an opportunity for anyone who may have this part to make a premium price, and I would also be willing to offer a $50 finder's fee for anyone who sources this part for me! I'm a desperate man. Here are the only requirements:
-Must be the updated version with the control arm mounts reinforced -Must be Mercedes part number 1073300942 -Must come from a reputable source (Mercedes already is looking for a reason not to honor this old recall) -Must be a new, uninstalled part |

Perhaps OP has already found one?? He posted about 2 years ago.
