Part No? - Pollen filter

[tim.100]

My pollen filter needs renewal. I dug it out from under the dash, and then spent 20 minutes as a contortionist replacing it. I wrote down the following part number:

202 830 03 18

I want to buy one from e-bay, but they are often 202 830 08 18. Now I know there are different types according to year and whether you have climate control, but could I have written down the wrong nunber? Spot the easy mistake…

Much appreciated if anyone has a parts CD available to check this!

Regards,

Tim

The pollen filters are the same shape on all C 202's and E 210's. The only difference is that the air-con or climate ones are charcoal activated, they look dirty before you fit them!!

Thanks for the above suggestions. Will check them out, including the genuine part option. Not keen on Eurocarparts however - I have a set of Bosch Triple Platinums they listed for a Volvo GDi engine, whereas they actually fit Porsches and BMW big-twins.
