I scored a Cardone remanufactured brake booster for my 2003 ML350 off of Amazon

Since it’s a 1976 model it could very well be a gray market car, and probably
is.

Because this is in the very last part of the time frame that gray market cars
were still being brought here.
All the other models of the time were available from showrooms, but people were
still bringing gray market cars in.

big juice.

Are you sure the cover isn’t removable or is sealed? I would look closely for
some notches in it that might index in a tab. I guess they might use sealed
relays due to the presence of water, but it adds a lot of expense.
Sounds like the relay isn’t sized properly for the current being switched

Anyone got a set of wheels that would fit my 1998 W210 wagon laying around?
They are 7.5 x 16 ET41, I believe.
They don’t have to be pretty, just functional.
Drop me a note if you do.
Thanks!
