"W" deck lids are bringing BIG money these days as the supplies dwindle with time.... and accidents... It May be safer to leave it in the
shed and only use it on Sundays.... the "W" decklid that is....:thumb

The W engine lids were different for e54 and early 55 to late 55, 56 n 57.
The spring attach plate area was different as was the spring.
The W engine lid was only on the Oval and Split windows... not the BIG window,
