I just picked up an ml500 and i am looking to change the hood. I have seen a couple on ebay that were listed as being for ml320 98-00...i asked the sellers if it would fit for my 02 ml500 and they asked for my vin and have said no they wont fit. i have check on the site car-part.com and it lists them as interchangeable, does anyone have an idea if the 98-05 ml320,430,500 all use the same hood? i am looking to buy the refurbished ones on ebay, not the aftermarket new. any help will be appreciated
