Purpose and body fitment

The presented rear right door is designed specifically for the Mercedes W169 body, ensuring it maintains the correct crease lines, hinge mounting points, and factory locations for seals and fittings. Its placement on the rear right side of the vehicle allows for direct replacement of a damaged panel without the need for interference with the structure of the pillars or sills.

Its original origin from the Doors and door panels segment means compatibility with factory locks, windows, guides, and electrical wiring, which facilitates the transfer of equipment from the previously installed component.

Color and paint finish

The door is finished in Kometgrau Comet Grey Metallic, marked with paint code 748, which allows for precise color matching with other body components in the same shade. The metallic paint coating provides a characteristic, subtle depth of color that harmonizes well with the styling line of the Mercedes W169.

In practice, this means the possibility of limiting the scope of paint work – in many cases, local blending and polishing are sufficient to achieve a visually consistent repair effect, which is beneficial in terms of both time and cost.

Structural characteristics

The rear right door for the Mercedes W169 constitutes a complete side skin panel within a single door opening. The design provided by the manufacturer ensures appropriate side rigidity of the body, correct window operation, and stable mounting of the lock and hinges.

The component has a factory-defined weight, which is important for maintaining proper vehicle balance and the correct operation of hinges and door checks. As a result, after installation, the door maintains the correct alignment relative to the fender, sill, and pillar, and the gaps between panels remain uniform.

Use of a used part

Choosing a used door from original Mercedes production is a solution often preferred for post-accident repairs when the priority is to maintain factory geometry and bodywork quality. This type of component allows for:

• reducing the scope of body filler and straightening work,
• preserving original creases and edges,
• easier fitting to the existing bodywork.

For body and paint shops, this means more efficient assembly and a predictable final result, and for the user – a solid, technically correct body repair.
