Hi! I have a 2008 C220 W204 that needs to replace the rear SAM. However I cant find a match. I see 4 Numbers? HW/SW/LU? What Does IT mean? And the 5DK nr. Does IT all have to match? What is the part nr? Or can i use a different part nr? I Really need help to find one I can use from eBay. Or atleast know What im looking for Its driving me crazy. Thanks alot!

the following older part numbers will also work:

900 16 03
545 86 01


Regardless of what part is used, the SAM must be flashed, therefore after install you will need DAS Xentry


Thank you so much! So you can confirm this will work? Even though its from a car with a manual transmission while I have automatic?

Thanks. Yeah I understand that. I will take IT to the dealer and Get IT programmed and fitted. But What I dont understand is wich Number on the Sam unit that is the part number? LU, SW or HW?
