Can anyone shed some light on this part?


The on-line parts places show this as changing design at some point. Anyone know if my 1994 E420 would have come with the later design? Is there a new versus old part number, or some measurement to tell the difference??


Thanks,

Michael

Usually they will specifiy an engine # range or chassis # range. I don't know anything about that car though.
