GLC 43 Front Air Suspension

Hi all, looking for some advice.

I have a 2016 GLC 43 X253, and the Front Air Suspension needs replacing. I am trying to source a used component, but can't find a match.

The part I have is A 213 320 21 00, but Mercedes say the new part number is A 253-320-70-01, but this doesn't list my part as a replacement.

Front Air Shock GLC43
Front Air Shock GLC43


I can find other GLC 43 X253, but they have different numbers (like A 253 320 09 01).

Finally, does anyone know if the GLC63 front air shocks are compatible with the GLC43? 63 shocks are A 253 320 09 01 or 253-320-79-01-80

Does anyone know why I can't seem to find a compatible used part?

TIA

Tom
