So what do you guys think?
I wanted to do set up alot so I bought KW Clubsport because it has top part so you can set up the camber but please look at the pictures.
There is only that little hole so there is no way I can change camber.
Under that hole you can see purple KW.
I called up KW importer in Japan and I asked how should I set up the camber and they told me take off the suspention and do the set up. I mean that is a lot of work to just do set up. I thought that you can do easy set up right on the track but it seems that you cant.
So what do you think I should do? Is it possible to make that hole bigger?

Hey Hiro,
On my KW V3, I adjusted the camber by lifting the car, pulling on the shocks and tower towards the side I needed the camber, than tightening, you can possibly play around +0.3 to -0.3 degrees with that
If you wish to reduce camber more, mercedes sells camber bolts that will reduce the camber by 0.5 degrees (not adjustable) so it would bring a -2.3 like I had to -1.8. By playing with the suspension camber (3 bolts) I brought it to an acceptable -1.6 (-1.5 being stock)

Thanks for the detail. There was really no meaning for upper mount for Mercedes becasue of that cover. Anyway you have to take it out.
I asked the dealer about the camber bolts and they say that its already on the car. Is the camber bolt different than its already on so you can adjust more?

No the bolt is just different, not adjustable.
Here is the part number #000 333 09 71
2 bolts per side so 4 bolts total if you want to do the front.
