Looking for OEM front springs for W201 2.3-16

Hello,
I have been watching this forum for a long time already, i would say many years and only now decided to register.
I had quite a few benzes including three AMGs over the years but only now started to look into a classic. I recently acquired an absolute beauty Loaded Euro Spec 2.3-16 with 32k original miles on a manual in blue-black metallic paint THAT IS LOWERED!

I have to bring it back to the original clearance which is low enough to my taste and already ordered a set of new rear springs from MB.
BUT front springs are not available and no longer in stock, what a BUMMER!

I really need your help in truing to acquire a set of OEM springs for it.

I was told by a rep in Classic Center that there are heavy and light duty springs for the front depending on a tranny. I would like to get springs from a manual car.
SPRINGS MUST BE OEM. I will not put aftermarket on it.
And if someone interested in the set that is installed now i will give it away for free after i remove it from the car.

ANY Suggestions and help are appreciated.

If your spring pad is blue the number is 201 321 09 84; If your spring pad is red the number is 201 321 10 84---have a Kirin!!

Read the post again and pay attention to the key word "if" then order the correct spring based upon the color coded pad already installed in your car, repeat already installed in your car!!
