• helps maintain a consistent line of upholstery and side panels in the trunk,
• supports stable lid operation by properly covering its mounting point.

• completing missing trunk upholstery elements,
• repairs after collisions or mechanical damage,

Characteristics of the Used OEM Part

The element is particularly useful in situations where the original cover has been damaged, removed, or no longer meets aesthetic requirements. Replacing it with an original used part allows you to restore the trunk's cohesive look without the need to invest in a new component.
