Application and fitment

The handle has been designed specifically for Mercedes W203 and W211 class models, taking into account the factory door shape and body lines. Its placement on the rear left side of the vehicle ensures a proper fit with the door panel and correct interaction with the standard lock mechanism.

Thanks to the use of original mounting geometry, the component fits the factory mounting points, which facilitates service work and reduces the risk of improper handle seating in the door.

Color and finish

The finish in the Obsidian Black Metallic shade – designated in the Mercedes palette as a metallic paint – allows for an aesthetic match to a body in the same color. Metallic black blends well with both light and dark styling accents, maintaining the characteristic, understated look of Mercedes vehicles.

Choosing a handle in the correct color reduces the need for additional painting and allows for faster vehicle restoration after bodywork repairs or replacement of a damaged component.

Technical and functional characteristics

As a product in the Door handles category, it is responsible for the correct, repeatable opening and closing of the door from the outside. The construction is adapted to the standard lock mechanism used in Mercedes W203 and W211 models, which allows for maintaining factory ergonomics.

The used nature of the part means it comes from disassembly, which in practice allows for combining cost-effective repairs with maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. This is a solution often chosen for professional post-accident repairs and vehicle restoration, where compliance with the factory design is essential.
