bolt question...
Hello, new member here. How is everyone?

I recently had the battery changed on a 04' ml500 and guy who changed it said I was missing a bolt that holds down the battery holder. Any idea on which bolt I need exactly? Also, the battery change reset my clock. How would I change that? Thank you.

Look at it yourself. If it's just the bolt then you only have to buy that.

If the part with the red circle is broken or rotted away you will have to buy #29 and the same goes for the tray #14. Dealer only.

thank you so much. i think the battery changer from last year accidentally or purposely didn't screw it back on. so the battery has been flopping around this whole time. can you please post a bigger picture? it is blurry on my end. and where would i go to purchase this bolt? home depot, pep boys, dealer?

Here is a re-post of the part numbers. I have no idea as to the size and thread design of the bolt, that is why I said DEALER ONLY.

What is wrong with the clock?

What year Ml 500 do you own?

Please update Your Profile to the left so we know what year it is.
