OE brands are Bosch & Beru on that car...MB suggests (SELLS) NGK plugs on Kompressor cars only!

The latest Bosch plug is FR8DPP33, ALSO still available (F8DPP33).

The Beru plug is 14FGH-8DPURX2..

thank you Doc.

One more question? With R and Without R which is better? I can buy without R with less than $7/pc.

Not really " better ".
If your car specifies non - " R " (resistor ) plugs, then you should use them.
Consider it a bonus, if you can get them cheaper.
