Purpose and fitment

The presented armrest is a component intended for installation in the rear interior of the Mercedes C-Class W205 generation. The construction was developed as a factory component, ensuring it maintains the correct shapes, mounting points, and backrest split line, which facilitates installation in place of the original part.

Its placement in the rear cabin area allows for comfortable forearm support for passengers and organizes the center part of the backrest, in accordance with Mercedes' factory finish standards.

Materials and finish

The armrest is finished in black, which facilitates integration with most upholstery configurations used in the W205. The leather surface provides a pleasant-to-touch, durable material that withstands daily use well and is easy to keep clean.

The subdued black color scheme helps maintain a uniform interior character, and the leather covering emphasizes the comfortable, premium-like nature of the rear seat.

Function in the rear interior

The rear seat armrest serves several important functional and aesthetic purposes:

• provides stable support for rear passengers, improving ride comfort on longer journeys,
• organizes the center part of the backrest, giving it a cohesive, factory look,
• serves as a finishing element that can be essential when restoring or refreshing the vehicle's interior.

Thanks to the preservation of the original geometry and construction, this element works well with the factory rear seat backrest mechanism, which facilitates daily operation.

Condition and use in service and restoration

As a part from the Other seat parts category, this armrest will work well both for replacing a damaged element and for completing the interior after upholstery or body repairs. Using a pre-owned component allows for an economical restoration of the original rear seat appearance without the need to resort to more expensive, new sub-assemblies.

Choosing an original dismantled part is particularly beneficial when you want to maintain the factory character of the interior, proper fitment, and compatibility with other seat elements.
