For Sale: H&R Front Sway Bar!
I purchased a slightly used H&R front sway bar from a member on here that stated it would fit a 4matic. In short, it doesn't. I'm selling this part for that reason alone. It is a beast of a bar. I'm asking $250 obo. It doesn't do me any good since it doesn't fit. Below you could see the stock 4matic bar next to the H&R and the difference in shape.

Yes as long as it is rear wheel drive. I'd have to convert my car to RWD, which I'd rather not do. Awesome part, my entire car is H&R except the front sway, which is upsetting. Damn 4matic

white and whiter
There is a difference between 10mm endlink and 12mm endlink. Of course you can drill it out from 10 to 12, but you cant put 12 on 10 unless you drill the endlink hole on the strut.
So NO it does not fit all 203 without making the endlink holes proper size.

If anyone has any questions you can contact H&R directly with your make & model, however the information above was pulled from their website.

I put a C32 f & r sway bar on my stock C230 (non sport) and the difference is night and day, best $50 mod (not including the end links) I have ever done. I had to drill out the tab on the strut which I did in two parts, stepping the drill sizes rather than drill a bigger hole right away (7/16 15/32) good luck finding a 12mm bit. There was no problem drilling the hole (soft steel)

Thanks for the info guys. Really wish I could have had this installed. The H&R bar is so much nicer than stock and I could only imagine how it would drive. Arg!

The Bilstein struts come with a little adapter you put in the 12mm hole to make it 10mm. Not sure how readily available this little widget is, but they are out there.
