Hey guys,

after looking at my SLK350 engine bay I realized that its most likely not possible on the SLK 350 b/c it does not have the same style passenger side (as the 55 AMGs), it has a big metal bracket and the water funnel on the passenger side takes up alot more space, I don't see any way for a bar to get past those two obstacles. Oh well, worth a shot.

I don't think the SLk55 has a strut tower bar.

It should, the black series is supposed to be light with more CF bits and a better ECU, that's about it.
