Purpose and fitment

The component is designed as a complete front door for the Mercedes W245 model, installed on the left side of the vehicle. The original panel geometry and factory stampings ensure proper alignment with the fender, rocker panel, and pillar, which facilitates gap adjustment and minimizes the need for additional bodywork.

The vehicle placement, defined as front – left side, allows for clear identification of the installation zone, which is essential when planning post-accident repairs and replacing damaged body components.

Color and paint layer

The door is factory-painted in the Polar Silver Metallic shade, identified by color code 761. The metallic paint coating provides a characteristic, subtle gloss that blends well with the Mercedes body line and makes it easier to match with other body panels in the same color.

Using a ready-made, original paint finish allows in many cases to reduce or completely eliminate the need for repainting, which shortens repair time and reduces costs associated with body restoration.

Technical and structural characteristics

The door belongs to the Doors and door panels group, meaning it is a key element of the vehicle's side structure, responsible for body rigidity and the proper operation of windows and seals. The design is intended for use with factory hinges, locks, wiring harnesses, and other components mounted within the door.

The weight of the component specified in the technical data indicates a full-size steel door construction, which is important when planning transport, installation, and selecting appropriate workshop tools.

Practical application and benefits of installation

Replacing a damaged door with an original Mercedes W245 part allows for the restoration of the correct side body geometry, ensuring proper closing and reducing noise and leaks resulting from the deformation of the old panel. Installing a factory panel also facilitates the subsequent adjustment of windows, locks, and seals without the need for time-consuming modifications.

The used nature of the part makes it an economical solution while maintaining the original OEM construction, which is particularly important in the case of post-accident repairs, where both cost and compliance with factory vehicle parameters are critical.
