C43 differential substitutable with other models?
I recently blew up my C43 differential and am looking for a replacement. I can not source one at all! I've looked all over the Internet and have had no luck. What differential can I substitute in from another model to make my car run again? I'm thinking maybe the cl430 or any other 430 since it's the same engine basically?
TL;DR: What differentials can the W202 C43 use from other models

The only one which plug & play with "W202 C43" is "R170 Slk32" diff.,,
but if you want to replace the gear & pinion, you can go with "W208 Clk320/W211 E320/W220 S350-S430 4matic-S500 4-matic"...

Damn so only the SLK32 will bolt right up? It has the 3.07 gear ratio?
