Vehicle Application and Function

The presented trunk lid handle with microswitch and camera space has been specifically designed for Mercedes C-Class W205 and E-Class W213 models. It is mounted on the rear of the vehicle, within the trunk lid, and is responsible for:

• opening the trunk lid via the integrated microswitch,
• managing the electrical signal to the trunk lock,
• integrating with the factory reversing system thanks to the provision for a camera.

This solution maintains the stylistic consistency of the vehicle's rear and ensures the proper functioning of comfort and safety systems.

Construction and Design Advantages

The handle module with microswitch and camera space is a component designed by the vehicle manufacturer, which translates to precise fitment to the trunk lid panel and correct routing of the electrical harness. The design includes:

• an ergonomic grip for comfortable trunk opening,
• an integrated microswitch that works with the lock and body electronics,
• a factory-designed space for backup camera installation, allowing for the original lens position to be maintained.

This solution minimizes the need for modifications, ensures stable mounting, and provides adequate protection for electrical components against external conditions.

Condition, Origin, and Fitment

The part is from a Mercedes vehicle and is a used component, meaning it has been previously used in a car but retains the functionality required for further use. Its original origin ensures:

• compatibility with factory mounting points in the trunk lid,
• proper interaction with the vehicle's electrical system,
• a consistent appearance with other elements of the rear body.

Before purchasing, it is advisable to compare the shape and type of the removed part with the offered handle to ensure full compatibility with your specific vehicle equipment version.

Benefits of Using an Original Handle with Microswitch

Installing this module in a Mercedes W205 or W213 allows for the restoration of proper trunk lid operation and prepares the vehicle for a reversing system without altering the body structure. The key benefits include:

• factory fitment with the trunk lid panel and trim strip,
• correct microswitch operation in conjunction with the lock and comfort module,
• the ability to install a camera in the manufacturer-designated location,
• preservation of the original aesthetics of the vehicle's rear.

Consequently, repairing or replacing the component does not require additional adaptations, and the trunk opening system and reversing system can operate predictably and reliably.
