Compatibility and fitment for Mercedes W203 / W211

The trim has been developed with the interior architecture of the Mercedes C-Class W203 and E-Class W211 in mind, which translates into:

• preservation of original mounting points in the door card,
• consistent edge profile relative to the door panel and seals,
• aesthetic connection with other trim panels.

As a result, the installation process is straightforward, and the visual effect remains consistent with the Mercedes factory standard, with no visible differences in the line or geometry of the element.

Performance characteristics and service application

• restore the aesthetics of the rear interior after bodywork repairs,
• replace a missing piece of the door trim after disassembly or a collision,
• maintain a uniform finish standard throughout the vehicle.

The product comes from the original Mercedes parts segment, which is important for users who care about maintaining compliance with the vehicle's factory specifications and for workshops specializing in the brand.

• verify the compatibility of the shape and mounting points with the removed trim,
• carefully unclip and clip in the fasteners to avoid damaging the upholstery,
