Spring compressor W202

Any ideas on where to obtain a Klann type inner spring compressor without costing the price of the car?

The postage might cost very close the kit price

I've seen 'clones' for well under £200 - not cheap but more affordable than Klann, which apparently lists at £800 odd, you would want to 'feel the quality' before buying though...

cheers

I think Machine Mart do a set of proper spring compressors for around 200 pounds

Hmm, looks exactly like other 'clones' available for much less than that,

Laser 4870 Coil Spring Compressor For Mercedes-Benz - Machine Mart

seen them for about £150 online, but at least you can 'weigh them up' in MM

cheers!

Thanks everyone!
I have found some in Denmark were I have also purchased some stuff in the past: KA-7308K: TOOL SPRING SET for Mercedes 202.033 (C43 AMG)
Difficult to get a hand on some of theses cheaper brands than Klann so as to "weigh" them and renting them from the UK would be expensive considering I live in Switzerland

This tool KA-7308K described as "drop forged" is supplied by TIEN CHIEN ENTERPRISES CO LTD from Taiwan.

Thanks for the info. Guess I will definitely not risk injury using a unknown quality item, specially when compressing springs.
