Purpose and fitment

The presented item is designed as a rear left door for Mercedes S204 series vehicles. Thanks to its factory geometry and correct mounting edge profile, it ensures proper fitment with the body, seals, and locks, which facilitates precise gap adjustment and maintains cabin tightness.

Its placement on the rear left side of the vehicle allows for a direct replacement of the damaged part without the need for structural modifications. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, where maintaining factory mounting points and body lines is crucial.

Color and paint finish

The door is finished in Obsidian Black Metallic, identified by paint code 197, which allows for visual consistency with other body panels in the same shade. The metallic structure of the paint enhances the vehicle's aesthetic appearance and facilitates matching during any corrective painting work.

This color selection is particularly important for repairs where the priority is to minimize the scope of painting and maintain a uniform color along the entire side of the vehicle.

Technical characteristics and installation

The door belongs to the Doors and door panels category, meaning it serves as a structural element of the side body, responsible for both passenger protection and the proper operation of lock and hinge mechanisms. The panel's construction is prepared to work with factory mounting components specific to the S204 series.

As a used part, the product is a practical solution for repairs where combining functionality with cost control is key. Its original origin promotes compatibility with factory mounting points, which translates into efficient installation and stable seating in the bodywork.

Use in body repairs

Replacing the complete rear left door is often chosen in cases of mechanical damage, corrosion, or deformation after a collision. Using an original S204 series component allows for:

• restoring the correct geometry of the side body section,
• maintaining factory crease lines and edges,
• limiting the scope of bodywork to the necessary minimum.

As a result, the repair is more predictable, and the final effect is closer to the factory manufacturing standard.
