Changing out Radiator need help - 2003 E500

Have a 2003 E500 with 81K miles and have identified that I have the dreaded A2115000202 old style Valeo radiator which I'm planning on changing out to the new style. Need assistance in finding part numbers and best place to purchase the following:

1) Radiator Hose Seals (upper and lower) - assuming this Benz has them as I think.

2) ATF tube seals (seals for automatic transmission lines into radiator).

3) Any other seals I may need (ie-power steering maybe)

Any help is much appreciated.

This is the information for the pertinent parts that I have

radiator (A2115003120), trans fluid (A001989210319), and mb coolant (Q1030002) - can anyone just verify prior to me placing order.

EPCnet has the part number for the radiator as A 211 500 31 02

Passenger side radiator hose seal: A 003 997 18 89

Trans tube seal ring: A 028 997 62 48 You'll need two of them.

You should also get the locking pin for the trans fill cap: A 140 991 00 55

I can't help right now with the fluid part numbers. If you don't have a subscription to EPCnet, you should get one. It's an invaluable resource for DIY, and it's free.
