Hello, i recently sold my e55 AMG, i only made one post about it explaining the situation in my country (Pakistan). Ill take a paragraph to explain it here again first.
So, here we have tax based on engine displacement and it increased exponentially over 2L engines. Since our little m156 is 6.2L it will cost around 250-300k USD to import to Pakistan. So people here who have the passion turn towards conversions. What is a conversion?
We buy a used low displacement E class or C class and then buy an AMG in Japan on Dubai or the UK, turn it into spare parts and then import the parts to make our own frankenstein AMG.
My car is one of those frankenstein AMG's.
its a 2004 e220 Chassis which has been swapped with 2007 e63 AMG parts, only the rear fenders and frame are of the e220 haha.
Since its a conversion, sometimes they turn out to be great and sometimes they need some love. Right now im working on fixing some issues on mine and would love some input from you guys. I want it as OEM as possible.
Ill attach some pictures below for you guys to see.
The engine bay is missing some trim and can you guys help point out what i need?
im missing the cover for the fuse box and the ECU mounting bracket is absent too, are those parts sourceable

73000 km or 45000 mi driven so far
There are several lids cover for the under hood fuse box. To match the correct cover having the donor car that the fuse box came from would the quickest way to get the correct cover. The mounting bracket for the ECU should be 211 545 22 40. It looks like you are missing the seal at the front of the engine compartment. I marked the location in the pic below. That part number is 211 628 03 98 which is used on most, if not all, 211 bodied cars.

What I meant to say in this post was with the donor car VIN the MB parts system (such as @black06c230 posted) will list the specific parts used on the car. Thus, this will tell you which fuse box lid is the correct one you need to match the fuse box. I hope that helps.

i got the front rubber seal installed today and cleaned up some wiring.
I understand what you mean however the VIN remains the same because changing that would be illegal.
So im using ‘w211 e63 RHD’ to search for part numbers which is a huge pain in the *** too.

Just find an Autotrader or Cars.com ad for a RHD E63 which will probably have a proper VIN that you can use.

But that does not help him determine the correct cover for the front SAM fuse box. He needs to know what was used in the build of the original E63 that donated all the parts to make his current car. As noted, there are several possible SAM boxes and covers that MB used in that model.

i actually found the original VIN number through the scanner and sourced some parts for it. Had to do some minor mods to some as its difficult to source where im from.
