• preservation of the correct geometry of mounts and guides,
• visual consistency with other cockpit elements,
• no modifications required for installation in the designated rear location.

The original Mercedes origin promotes stable seating in the console and reduces the risk of unwanted play or noise during operation.

• wear of the adjustment element in the rear cabin.

Choosing an original, used grille allows you to maintain material and colour consistency of the interior, which is important when caring for the aesthetics of a premium class vehicle.
