Purpose and interior fitment

The backrest is designed as a rear seat component mounted on the left side, allowing it to precisely match the geometry of the rear cabin. The construction corresponds to factory solutions used in the W117 and W176 model families, which facilitates installation and ensures proper alignment with the seat cushion, side panels, and seat belts.

The black leather creates a cohesive, visually understated panel that complements both light and dark interior finishes. This type of backrest is ideal for replacing a worn-out component, restoring an orderly and well-maintained look to the interior without the need to interfere with other upholstery elements.

Construction and functional properties

The seat backrest belongs to the Seats and benches category, meaning it is an integral part of the vehicle's seating system. The leather covering provides a pleasant-to-the-touch surface that is easy to maintain daily and resistant to the typical wear and tear of a rear seat, such as frequent occupancy or carrying luggage on the back of the seats.

Its placement in the rear cabin on the left side promotes passenger ergonomics, and the properly contoured shape of the backrest supports a stable seating position. The black color minimizes the visibility of minor dirt and visually organizes the space, which is particularly important in vehicles used intensively, e.g., on long trips or in fleet applications.

Condition, functionality, and service application

The backrest is a used component, which in practice allows you to combine original manufacturing quality with a more favorable purchase cost compared to new components. This type of part is particularly useful for post-accident repairs, replacing damaged upholstery, or during gradual interior restoration when you want to maintain the factory character of the cabin.

Replacing the rear left seat backrest is a standard service operation performed both in specialized workshops and by experienced enthusiasts. The original design facilitates the removal of the old element and the installation of the new one, without the need for modifying mounts or interfering with the body structure.

By choosing this black leather backrest, you gain:

• a cohesive rear seat look matched to Mercedes finishing standards,
• factory fitment for the rear left part of the vehicle,
• the ability to restore interior aesthetics without costly, full upholstery replacement,
• a cost-effective solution thanks to the use of a pre-owned part.
