Parts for 1997 E320- Help!!!
I have a 1997 E320 Which I find that some of the parts numbers for my cars at mercedes are listed as 1996 which I find odd. The last part was the window switch board in the center council. Has anyone else found this problem?
I need Wheel Bearings for the Front,Rotors and pads for the back and new original mats (Black).
Can someone help me with a good source and an idea of how much I should pay.
Last I need new lenses for my headlights and fog lights. They are clouded now. I tried a buffing product which made them better but they are still lousy.
How expensive are the lenses.
Thanks

S, GL, Escalade ESV, my shoes
Call Philip at FastLane, he can get you most OEM part at 40% off what dealer charge.
I think I have a switch board for power window, let me dig up my part bin and search.
For the lens, I see them often on eBay ($300/pair). It's better & cheaper just to go w/ good used set headlight that people who've done Depo upgrade put for sale on eBay or forum

3 sites to use
Hi, the fog light lenses are actually cheaper than you'd think. At Autohaus AZ (noted below) they're under $10 each for your car. Changing them is a pain, however. 
If you don't want to go aftermarket, Autohaus has the complete headlight assembly -- genuine Hella -- for your car for about $220/side; which includes the lens (at least based on the product image). It's probably worth looking at your headlight reflectors to see if they're in need of replacement and then just do the whole assembly if they are.
At any rate, try these sites for all your benz needs; they all have pretty much the same stock and I've ordered from all three with good results. Auto Parts Warehouse is back east, as is MBZ.org; AutoHaus is in Phoenix, so if you're in the western US you'd get it faster from them. I did have an issue with an order from MBZ, but they finally took care of me and I'm quite satisfied with them.
Here's the links (listed in order of my personal preference):
www.autohausaz.com
www.autopartswarehouse.com
http://parts.mbz.org
Good luck and enjoy the ride,
Greg

I have a set of window switches if you need them.
