2004 SL55 Stock Throttle Body

Does anyone have a Stock 74mm SL55 throttle body laying around? I know, I know... useless at best. Perhaps you have it holding a door open or something. I need it to test my stock configuration. I plan on upgrading eventually but still trying to swallow the initial payment aftershock. My throttle body connector has melted and become one with the connector pigtail. So I would need a stock throttle body with the small wiring pigtail that connects the TB to the main wiring harness. Have any of you experienced this? Was this caused by excessive supercharger or under hood heat or a wiring short? The engine still idles fine but I receive an intermitant P0507. I am almost certain the melted connector is the cause.

Thanks all

Hmm I thought the TB on the SL55 was 79-80mm? Or did it change throughout the years?

2004 SL55 Throttle Body

Sadly, mine is stamped 745. Will upgrade eventually... to 80-82mm.
