C270 (W203216) Estate Rear Light Part Number?

[Chrishazle]

My July 2001 C270 estate has rear lights with 3 clear stripes, not 2 - and a cracked nearside lens.

Looking at the Russian parts site there are 2 part numbers given for my car's VIN - namely A203 820 then 11 64 or 23 64. As I've seen cars with 2 and 3 clear stripes on the rear lights I'm guessing that's why there are 2 part numbers - but which is the correct one for the 3 stripe variety?

Can someone please enlighten me - TIA for the help.

Part numbers for the 3 stripe variety are A203 820 23 64 (nearside) and A203 820 24 64 (offside).

Thanks Malcolm - there's a guy on eBay selling the offside one (I missed out on the nearside one), gave me the part number for the one he currently has listed (24 64) and has offered me another nearside one for £25 - but partsreunited shows new ones for under £40 and "make me an offer", so I'm debating which way to go. The crack at the bottom of my existing lens is not bad and no water appears to be getting in, so I can't really convince myself it's worth spending the money!

If its at the bottom,,then at least water can get out

Good to be back to light hearted banter, with all the venom that's been kicking around the forum the last few days. It's been SO tempting to tell lots of children to get back in their prams - but I figured the fewer that posted, the quicker it might all die down and normal service resume - ie teasing the tent maker and Lizzie (or Karen, TP, Helen, Lisa Jayne and all the other normal suspects - where's Alex when you need him?!)

You can see that the way the postings drop off,,a shame really as we are very good most of the time
