identifying callipers

ive gone for the brake upgrade.

ive bought used front and rear callipers but my problem is i didnt see them come off the car or can i get the chassis number from the person.
could anybody tell me a way to identify the callipers i have so i can be sure i have the right ones and get the disc and pads from Mercedes.

fronts are 6 piston and have brembo

rears are 4 piston and have brembo

Thanks

Post pictures and part numbers. You can go on to parts.com, enter the part number, and it will tell you what vehicle it came from.

That looks to be the right caliper, although I'm unsure if thats the 340 or 360 rotor size caliper. I hope you don't plan on installing these yourself (based off your other post)

is there a way to measure the caliper on or off the car to find out the right size rotor,
dont worry about installing ive got my mate to come and help, he is a hairdresser in a classy salon and his brother might help too, he knows his way round a tool bag, he owns a nail bar.

i beg to differ, i had this question up a week ago and didn't get one response.
with a little trolling and a bit of humour it seems my question has got a few answers and hopefully some good help.
i hope i aint offended and hope that i will get all the help i need.
Thanks

Those things look huge. I'm surprised that there isn't a part number visible. I know when I had mine off there was a part number on the rear portion of the caliper. I wish I could have been of more help, but I was figuring that I might be able to spot a part number. Maybe if you cleaned them up a bit, you might find a part number.

Some MB calipers come with the # size of the rotor stamped by one of the mounting points.
