CLK430 Spark Plugs

Could someone please provide me with the correct Bosch OEM spark plug for my engine (2000 CLK430)? Resistor or no resistor? Gap? etc. I want to make sure what I buy is the correct plug.... I hate returning anything...

Im asking because im not sure if the owners manual gives outdated information. Ive read that Mercedes has recently changed the Bosch plugs they recommend, from non-resistor to resistor, or vice-versa, I dont really remember. Im not sure if the dealer would tell me the Bosch part number if I called them and asked them..... anyone work at a dealer and could check for me?

I use the IrFusion plugs, I found that my cars are more responsive and a bit more efficient, but any plug listed will work.
