The bulb holders are the smaller,usually white, twist locks directly above the large black headlight cover. It's tucked under the cross bar the bonnet catch bolts to. If there is no bulbs in there you will need the orange coated ones. If none of the indicators work check the fuses and the relay as well.

I believe it is integrated in the K40 relay module in the front right engine compartment next to the ME control unit. I also believe the 97 W210 relay was moved outside of it. That fuel pump should be outside of the tank so it will be easy to test for power and ground at the pump if you are having a fuel related issue. I have replaced many more fuel pumps on these vehicles than relays. I usually replace the relay as a precautionary measure, but not because it failed. I hope this helps you.

the key remote may just need resetting , your owners manual should give details how this is done , if you hav,nt got the manual google search for an online owners manual , this will be infinitely less costly than going to a mercedes dealer, this may or may not work but it is the best place to start , with regards to the radio, fitting is a very straight forward procedure and made easier if a wiring connection is also purchased for your particular vehicle , these are very inexpensive and are readily available online or in any motor accessory shop , save time and money as just plug into vehicles wiring then the radioe no need to connect each wire seperately , installing a radio with the new wiring loom would take no more than one hour ,probably less so get a quote and ask what their hourly rate is , hope this helps
