A cautionary tale - I bought an EZ/ Ziegler plastic grille insert for my 190E. Chrome strips wouldn't swap over from the old one until I trimmed the plastic clips a bit. I get the grille in there and close the hood. Oops. Hood won't open. Turns out there is a bit of grille in the path of the safety catch; couldn't pull the tongue out far enough for the catch to clear. If I had compared the old and new I would have caught it and could have trimmed it to match. I had to basically ruin the new grille insert to get the hood open. So - moral to the story - buy OE parts. If not then at least compare and contrast before fitting the new part to make sure. This brand new aftermarket EZ Ziegler plastic grille insert is going in the trash.
