While changing my conductor plate in my 722.6 W140 I found there were no white solenoid covers in my car like those I have seen pictured in some of the DYIs. Looking further, there seems to seem to be some variations but I am not sure what is correct. Are the covers missing from my 1997 S420 or were they not used for that year? Are they important?

Thanks

To get a correct answer you need to post the VIN----

I'm new and didn't know about posting the VIN. Here it is. Btw, my car runs fine, I just wanted to know if I should seek the white plastic solenoid covers I have seen on other cars. Maybe these shields/covers didn't come on all 722.6s?

the white plastic covers (2 off) are there to prevent unwanted particles falling onto those solenoid contacts. Without it , don't bother looking. It should work just fine!
