Verify the vehicle uses the right-side telescopic sliding tube or Lift-O-Mat with sliding tube configuration before ordering. Match the compressed length, extended length, rod diameter, and end connections to the original support for proper fitment. Confirm the Mercedes-Benz model, year, and hood support position against the vehicle’s existing strut before installation.
