Purpose and fitment

The presented Door Handle Mercedes C118 W213 W243 C253 Grab Front Right O/S Selenite Grey is intended for installation on the front right door (passenger side). The design corresponds to the factory solution used in coupe and estate body styles across popular Mercedes generations, which facilitates fitting to the existing door structure and lock.

The original geometry of the mounts and guides ensures proper interaction with the door opening mechanism, lock cylinder, and vehicle wiring, without the need for modifications or adaptations.

Color and finish Selenite Grey Metallic – 992

The factory paint Selenite Grey Metallic – 992 is a popular, elegant shade of grey used in modern Mercedes models. The metallic coating blends well with the body line, masking minor differences in light reflection between individual body panels.

Choosing a handle in the same paint code allows for reducing or completely eliminating the need for repainting the component, which shortens repair time and reduces costs. This is particularly beneficial for precise visual repairs where color consistency and the aesthetics of the side body section are essential.

Performance characteristics and installation

As an item from the Door Handles category, the product is responsible for convenient and reliable door opening from the outside, and its proper operation affects daily vehicle comfort. The design is intended to work with the factory lock mechanism and internal linkage, allowing for installation using standard service procedures.

The used nature of the part means that the component comes from vehicle dismantling and is intended for further use after proper installation. This is a sensible choice for repairs where maintaining the manufacturer's original specification while optimizing costs is key.

Application in Mercedes body repairs

Replacing a door handle is a typical operation during repairs following side collisions, parking damage, or mechanical wear of the component. Using an original handle in the correct color allows you to:

• restore the proper operation of the passenger-side door opening mechanism,
• maintain a consistent paint appearance along the door and fender line,
• reduce the scope of body and paint work,
• maintain compliance with the factory Mercedes body specification.

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the door area in your Mercedes and need other components from the same group, such as external handles, handle trims, or additional covers, check the available parts in the Mercedes Door Handles category.
