Front Struts

I need to get at least one new strut for my C207. However, the part numbers are confusing me. Right off the strut that is on the car, the part # is 2043202866 (My VIN# WDDKJ6FB9GF346255). The part number that i believe is mine going off of the Mercedes parts explosion is 207-323-21-00-64 . Help? Or should I get some aftermarket setup?

Thanks, but now that made it more confusing. The part listed there does not show up when I enter my vin in Mercedes parts website. I enter the part that is listed on the actual shock and it comes returns no results found. However, I show a bunch listed on ebay. Probably just me, but this car has got to be the most confusing car to order parts for. I am gonna call the benz dealer and see what part # they give me. I am most likely going to go with some new bilstein's though.

I'm pretty sure the front right strut for your car is 2043200966

I could be wrong but i think some of those front suspension part numbers changed after the facelift 2014 models came out. Same function just different numbers. In any event, you can't go wrong (usually) with using the same part number that's on the car now. There are plenty on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/28386300021...UAAOSwn2leqfYE

Lol...i was thinking they should be the same, but being that the camber adjustment is non-existent I didn't want to take a chance.
