Evening,

Does anyone know where i can get replacement (s/Steel?) clips from, which clip the top cover of the engine intake filter airbox to the body of the airbox? I'm assuming when the car has been serviced previously, they have been lost. The cover is now rattling very loudly with the missing ones gone!

Mercedes say they are not available as a spare part... :rolleyes:

Thanks!!

Same as this one - the polished clips are what we need.. assuming they will clip back in with the box in situ.
Thanks

I have the old airbox from my CL, I'll look over the weekend to see what the clips look like.

I just bought stock of those from MB Dartford.

Stainles steel spring clips often need refitting as they go missing

Did MB Dartford sell them as from stock or special order? MB Northampton, whom I have a good relationship with for parts are certain they cannot be ordered separately, only as the whole airbox!

Did you have any luck craig?

Thanks all.

I put that part number to MB Northampton and they now say they can source them, so hopefully I can get a hold of 5 from them next week!
