Especially for the faithful restoration of historic ignition systems, original Bosch spare parts from older stock are particularly interesting.

Important note on item condition:

Due to age and storage, sometimes for decades, both the original packaging, if available, and the item itself may show signs of storage and aging. These include, for example, dust, light scratches, discoloration, or superficial corrosion.

Please observe the product images and the information on the respective item condition.

Fitment and Application

Before purchasing, please compare the Bosch part number 1 237 121 987 or the Mercedes-Benz reference number A 000 158 36 18 with your existing component.
