What is THIS? With pics.

Found this from one garage. Anyone have idea what is it exactly? I think its some kind of height leveller for chassis. That black box where mechanism is seems to fit to trunk, deeper part on the side. Can't find other manufacturer than mercedes star from parts.
Is there any installation instruction on this? Is it rare? Price?

The lil hats on the golden springs look like coil over conversion for normal rear shocks. And there's a convertible roof pump unless it's used in a hydraulic suspension setup.

Any part numbers?

Next time on garage I have to check those again for part numbers, as I remember there was mentioned W124 on parts. I suppose those are same set, because everything was in same box and packed correctly on plastic. Is it possible that same pump is used for both systems?

Forget to say that parts are unused.
