S55AMG shocks same as standard W220's ?

I might need a front right Shock. I see on ebay pictures that the shock out of a AMG car has AMG logo on the shock. I looked up the part numbers for a S55 and a S500, they are the same, but the AMG cars have the AMG logo on them and the S 500 cars do not. Also the pic of a genuine AMG show a part number of A 220 320 16 38 and it has 3 wires out of the top center. Any one know if they are interchangeable or if they are different ? I have also seen pics of the same p/n shock with no wires. Any one know the deal on these shocks ?
Look at the difference, same part #'s

If the part # are the same they "should" be the same......only difference I see is that one still has the sensor attached and the other doesnt. The sensor at the top is removable....just snaps in...
