Application and body fitment

The offered item is a complete front door for the right side, dedicated to the C-Class C205/A205 coupé body style. Thanks to the factory geometry and the correct profile of the door edges, they maintain the side line of the body, proper assembly gaps, and compatibility with factory hinges, locks, and seals. The vehicle placement specified as front – right side allows for unambiguous identification of the mounting position and reduces the risk of errors when selecting parts.

Obsidian Black Metallic – 197 paint color

The door is finished in Obsidian Black Metallic – 197, one of the popular, elegant shades of black used in premium Mercedes vehicles. The metallic structure of the paint ensures a characteristic depth of color and good compatibility with factory clear coats. For body and paint shops, this means easier color matching to the rest of the body, and for the user – a consistent, aesthetic appearance of the vehicle after side body repair.

Technical characteristics and assembly

As a component from the Doors and door panels group, the product serves as a structural base for windows, locks, wiring harnesses, and other components mounted in the door. The design, intended for installation on factory mounting points, enables:

• maintaining proper side body rigidity,
• correct window guidance within the door frame,
• maintaining acoustic and water tightness within the seals,
• seamless integration with original door equipment components.

The door comes from disassembly (used condition), which in practice means the original sheet metal structure is preserved without interference with the load-bearing construction. For professional service centers, this is a beneficial solution, allowing for reduced repair time compared to repairing a heavily damaged component.

Benefits of using original Mercedes doors

Using the original Mercedes C205 A205 Door Front Right O/S C-Class Obsidian Black Metallic - 197 brings a number of practical benefits:

• Factory fitment – maintaining body lines, gaps, and mounting points consistent with the manufacturer's design.
• Visual consistency – the Obsidian Black Metallic – 197 color makes it easier to match the existing paint coating of the vehicle.
• Time savings in the workshop – a ready-to-use door base reduces the scope of bodywork to a minimum.
• Equipment compatibility – the ability to transfer original sub-assemblies from damaged doors without the need for structural modifications.
