Intended Use and Body Fitment

This door handle is designed for installation on the front right door of Mercedes W176 and W204 series vehicles. Its placement on the vehicle is factory-specified as front – right, ensuring proper geometry, grip ergonomics, and compatibility with the door opening mechanism in these models.

As a component within the Doors and Door Panels category, the door handle works in conjunction with the factory lock, cylinder, and linkages, allowing for the preservation of the original door functionality without requiring structural modifications.

Body Color and Aesthetics

The South Seas Blue Metallic - 162 color is a distinctive metallic blue shade used in factory Mercedes configurations. Using a door handle in this color allows for an aesthetic replacement of a damaged part without the need for additional painting, provided that other body panels are in the same shade.

The metallic paint finish ensures a consistent visual appearance with other body panels, and the appropriately matched shade minimizes color differences visible in daylight and artificial light.

Technical and Functional Characteristics

The door handle is designed as an external door component, working with the factory opening mechanism in Mercedes W176 and W204 vehicles. Its construction allows for installation in the place of the original handle, maintaining the correct position relative to the door skin and seals.

As a used part, this door handle comes from vehicle dismantling, which allows for the preservation of the original manufacturer's specifications regarding shape, mounting points, and surface finish. This is a practical solution for collision repairs or the replacement of individual body components.

Practical Application and Installation Benefits

The use of this door handle is particularly beneficial in situations where the damaged front right door component needs replacement while maintaining the factory appearance and ergonomics. Its original Mercedes origin promotes proper alignment with the door skin and stable operation of the opening mechanism.

Choosing an original door handle in South Seas Blue Metallic - 162 color minimizes the scope of bodywork and painting, resulting in time savings and reduced risk of color shade differences between body panels.
