    Need to source a plastic cover that goes over the bottom part of the boot lock and the boot edge for a W210(97-2003) E-class model. New one from Mercedes is a bit expensive and so far I couldn't find one in good nick in the scrap yards. If anybody knows of a Merc of that model that is being dismantled around Dublin, please give me a shout.

    I think I was there last week ( hope we are referring to the same place). The only car that probably has that part didn't have the key to open the boot! Thank's anyway

    Boot release on the driver's side door? Also nearly sure there's an emergency boot release cable hidden somewhere in the petrol cap area.

    there is a boot release on the central console alright but that works only when there is a battery in the car( and it wasn't one in there...) but I wasn't aware of the other boot release. I'll check it out in my car first and if I'll find it I'll go back to the scrap yard. Thank's for that"nialler".

    Try a dealer in the north, would almost guarntee you it would be half the price. My brother was quoted €1400 euro for a clutch for a new shape skoda octivia down here but got it of a dealer in the north for €650. Also, my nephew was quoted €120 for a boot release cable for an audi a4 but got it in the north for £30, thats about €35. We get all our bits up there now, usualy for half the price.
