I would then try Classic Center, SLS, the other more specialized sources. Good luck, I'm sure all of us will eventually wind up where you are now.

I purchased some from the local Mercedes dealer who ordered and obtained them within two days.  I also believe another member may have mentioned that the Autozone may carry replacement fuses which will work but are not exactly the same as the MB fuses.

......Not being a "Purist", I replaced ALL my fuses with the German porcelain - type as used in all the older German cars......the different colour indicating their amperage.....I was working on older VWs for a living in a previous life...

Napa used to carry packs of the individual amperages. PepBoys used to carry mixed packs. YMMV, depending on location.

5 Amp = Yellow
8 Amp = White
16 Amp = Red
25 Amp = Blue
