R171 to W203/CL203/W209 Suspension Compatibility

I have been looking around for different parts and have found a few threads and certain sites showing different R171 items that are compatible with our platforms like interior pieces and brakes. I have been looking at some suspension items and have seen that the R171 is a pillowball topmount while the W203/CL203/W209 models are not.

may be a stupid question but would there be a way to modify our strut housing? cutting and welding required and probably not worth it idk

just looking into some type of front camber adjustment options cause the R171 coils come with front camber plates and our models only have the expensive (for what it is and not really useful) k-mac kit.
