I saw a thread on pirate4x4 where a guy cut the top off of the MB oil filter housing and welded a cap to the remaining stub with a threaded fitting there. This way he retained the thermostat, bypass, stock oil cooler lines but added a remote oil filter. If you've got enough clearance for the bottom of the oil filter housing, this might be the way to go.
