Purpose and Function in the Seat Belt System
The adjustment, mount, and slider for the seat belt in the Mercedes W212 are responsible for setting the height and guiding the belt along the car's pillar. A correctly functioning component:
- stabilizes the belt's position relative to the user's shoulder, preventing it from sliding over the neck or shoulder,
- ensures smooth webbing movement during fastening and unfastening, without jerking or jamming,
- maintains compatibility with the factory safety system geometry, which is crucial for proper interaction with pretensioners and airbags.
This part can be used on both the right and left sides, simplifying selection when servicing the entire seat belt system in the vehicle.

The Mercedes W212 Seat Belt Adjustment Mount Slider is structurally designed to fit the interior architecture of the E-Class W212, thus preserving:
- factory mounting points within the car's pillar,
- compatibility with the original seat belts used in this model,
- visual consistency with the interior upholstery and trim, without compromising the cabin's aesthetics.
Its original Mercedes origin ensures high-quality manufacturing and dimensional accuracy, which is essential for installation at existing mounting points.
Vehicle Placement and Installation Aspects
The presented seat belt slider can be installed on the right or left side of the vehicle, allowing for flexible use in repairs on both the driver's and passenger's sides. This solution:
- simplifies parts selection for interior servicing after a collision or due to wear and tear,
- reduces the number of inventory variants needed in a workshop,
- facilitates repair planning when elements on both sides of the vehicle need replacement.
Due to its importance for safety, installation by a service experienced with Mercedes vehicle seat belt systems is recommended.

This solution is particularly recommended for post-accident repairs, interior restoration, or returning the vehicle to its original factory specifications.
Safety, Operation, and Seasonal Preparation
A functional seat belt slider and mount are essential for preparing the car for intensive use, including in harsher weather conditions.
