This set includes two precision-engineered air intake duct hoses—left and right—specifically designed for Mercedes-Benz W164 platform SUVs including the ML350, ML550, GL450, and GL550 from 2006 to 2012.

This replacement set restores proper airflow, helping maintain fuel efficiency, throttle response, and engine longevity. Sold by Lab Work Auto, this kit is an affordable, high-quality alternative to dealership parts.
