Hi All,

I'm looking for a front left and right strut for a 2002 S600L. I'm admittedly not very knowledgeable on Mercedes so don't want to find the wrong parts. Been quoted around 1300+ vat each side for Mercedes parts, so looking for a cheaper alternative or used parts if possible! The car has ABC.

Had some major work required to get the car MOT'd. Underbelly has required some welding and the ball joints are being rebuilt in place by a specialist near me for a fraction of the cost. My idea whilst the lower arms are off is to replace the struts as they're looking in need of replacement, see pictures attached.

Got the RHS OEM number from the picture (A2203200338).

Help much appreciated, desperate to keep this car on the road..

Hello and welcome

Struts look bad but the rest is looking really good for a 20 year old Mercedes :)
