Ebay air ride lowering links?

Just wondering if anyone had any feedback on the lowering links on Ebay. There are a couple of sellers and wanted to know if anyone had feedback good or bad. I've seen the adjustableairride and ghostlinks, but it seems a little high for a non-moving part that is not likely to fail.

I just made my own thanks to this forum. When you realize how it actually works you can probably fashion something by yourself, it's so simple.

Here's the DIY https://mbworld.org/forums/cl-class-...lete-drop.html

Here's my car with the links I made myself from parts at ACE hardware. https://mbworld.org/forums/5189321-post672.html

Thanks. I did come across your thread as well. I ended up taking the car to an guy that specializes in MB and European cars to have him lower it using the Star tool. He was only able to lower the 0.5" and now the ABC light is on.

Looks like I'll be taking a trip to the MB dealer now.
