Just buy two complete coil packs at that point. The effort needed to open them up and replace all of the coils isn't worth the small savings, IMO.

as far as now I can get all 24 coils and chips for 900$
a rebuild both sides is 1400$
a non oem coil pack 2000$ both sides
a Oem coil pack 3000$ both sides
am I right ?
what is so difficult al soldering those coils ?
+ I forgot to mention
I am sure that the repair kit coils last longer then those OEM coils

There's only one coil pack, there's no option for "non-oem".
I paid around $950 for a new coil from benz. There are deals out there. I also though the last time I looked, the repair coils were almost $50 each, so replacing 24 would be over $1k. Aside from that, opening the packs and hoping to not damage anything, re-using the old circuit boards, housings, etc. Seems like a strange place to save money for me.
The new ones are very reliable, do you have any evidence of the "repaired" ones being more durable than the updated 680/780 part # ones? I can't see that being possible.

also, if you paid 950, I must be able to get them for less if OEM, as MB is next door and no taxes as to the USA
thx !

It was employee cost for me, but they are available online for similar amounts. I paid sales tax and such, but I got a 1 yr warranty through work and got it handed to me, we keep them in stock.
I actually have to buy another one, my left side is now dying out, I'll see what the going rate is.

I can"t find a price close to 950$ + I would need it to ship as a present to europe to avoid extra taxes

Rock auto shows the Airtex ones for $950 but they are all built by Temic, there's no other manufacturer, they just don't have the MB star on them.
I found a local guy on ebay that has a "new" one for $925, might be worth going to look at, as I need a left side.
