ebay Charcoal cabin filters?

Anyone tried the ebay filters as replacements for your cabin charcoal filters under the glovebox?

I just replaced my main cabin filter and want to do the charcoal filters but the $140 for the MB filters is a little pricey given what they are!

TIA!

"ebay filters" is pretty general. Link, or detailed description would help, Yes?

If those are a Mann filter it looks like a great deal.
Seems almost too good to be true, but seller has a great feedback rating so that's a good sign.
Let us know if you get them.

I have used the replacement filters found on eBay with no problems whatsoever. It does matter what model year your vehicle is, because there have been changes to the HVAC system. Some years require an activated charcoal filter (like the previous W210 models), while others may have a paper filter with some charcoal added on (this is the situation for my 2006 E320 CDI).

Just be sure you're odering the correct part for your particular vehicle!

those will only work on the sedan as the wagon only has one and it is in the engine bay....
