Amg rear brakes possible on a cls550

Can someone confirm or have others used w218 cls63 or e63 rear brakes calipers on a w218 cls550? If so, are the a direct swap?

No the fronts don't bolt on. I don't know what is the problem there. I have done the rears, not fronts so i can't help you with that.

From what I understand, the rears are no problem but the fronts are a no-go w/o a lot of $$$ and effort.
