on w202 in engine bay on drivers side next to the top part of the strut there's a black plastic box, opening the box lid there is a connector where you can connect your battery charger clamp.

check if you have the same black box on your car AMG?

how bad was your car hurt?
is it totaled?
rear ended by a truck, truck driver must have fooked you and your car hard from behind?

Any pics of the damages?

Hi there,

I think the only way you can do this is by jacking up the car and connecting to the starter solenoid or the connection on the passenger side footwell where the battery cable enters the engine bay (is by the transmission wiring harness)

Remember to connect the - side of the battery to the frame.

Good luck, sorry I haven't got any pics.
