Purpose and dashboard fitment

The presented ashtray is a component from the Dashboards group, designed for installation in the front part of the centre console. The construction is prepared for factory mounts, ensuring proper fitment with surrounding panels and decorative trims. Correct alignment minimizes the risk of rattles, looseness, and unwanted vibrations while driving.

The placement in the front console zone ensures convenient access for both the driver and the passenger, without interfering with other equipment. This solution allows for an aesthetic closure of the console space, especially when replacing a damaged or missing element.

Construction and functionality of the aluminium ashtray

The ashtray features a front aluminium panel that visually integrates with the dashboard line in Mercedes CL203 / W203 models. The smooth surface makes it easy to keep clean, and the neutral shade of aluminium complements various interior colour variants.

The opening mechanism is designed to allow for smooth sliding and retracting of the insert, which improves ergonomics during use while driving. The internal space of the ashtray can be used not only for its original purpose but also as a small, lockable storage compartment for small car accessories.

Condition, origin, and benefits of installation

The element comes from the dismantling of a Mercedes vehicle, which guarantees the preservation of factory geometry and compatibility with the original centre console. As a secondary market part, the ashtray is a suitable choice for post-accident repairs, interior restoration, or returning the car to a factory-like state.

Installing an original element from the Dashboards group allows you to:

• maintain a cohesive cockpit look without visible differences in shade or material texture,
• preserve the correct operation of the opening and closing mechanism,
• reduce the time needed for part fitting compared to aftermarket replacements.

For workshops and individual users, this means faster repair completion and a lower risk of needing additional modifications.

Identification and vehicle fitment

To correctly select the ashtray for a specific equipment version, it is worth verifying compatibility with the OEM part number and available interchangeable numbers in the vehicle documentation or the manufacturer's catalogue. The product has assigned OEM catalogue numbers and interchangeable numbers, which facilitates unambiguous identification in service and warehouse systems.

Additionally, the SKU designation in our store allows you to quickly find this specific ashtray variant in case of reordering or technical consultation. Information about the placement on the vehicle clearly indicates that this is an element intended for the front centre console zone.
