A totally different approach but why not keep Airmatic system using Arnotts ? As far as I know, those Arnotts seem to be quite reliable and you would not deal with the hefty (at least it sounds like that ) job of conversion ordeals

if you are talking about airmatic on your CLS550, well, I don't think that is even a 212.
