Mercedes W210 2001 wing/bumper bolts

[W124ali]

Hello. Wanted to take my front bumper off however I think one of the previous owner has had the bumper off and used the wrong bolts on the bumper ears (next to the arches) where the bumper screws into the wing. Basically one bolt head has broken off already and I would like to replace them with the correct OEM bolts. Anyone know what are the correct ones and am I best to get them from the main dealers?

Recently replaced a front wing on my facelift (2002) s210 320cdi and this bolt nearest the wheel snapped when i tried to remove it.

The side sections of front bumper on a w210 are held in place by 3 seperate fixings the last of which is the bolt nearest the wheel arch which threads into a captive nut in the front wing.

I found the wing was very solid without this last bolt so instead of using another bolt in this rust prone area just put a zip tie through the hole into the wing.

Maybe if you want to use a bolt try a stainless steel one so it won't rust in future.
