I can not drive my Benz now, I tried to make a new wiring harness by myself, but they sealed the wires into the connectors, wires cracked into connectors, there are no places to solder the new wires on.

MB dealer quoted $750 Canadians ($500 USD) for the part, I couldn't find the part in Fastlane catalog. My car has 220k kms (140K miles), my local MB dealer didn't admit any wiring harness issue.

Has anybody bought wiring harness from any cheaper source?
