Purpose and fitment for Mercedes W169 / W245

The backrest has been designed for Mercedes A-Class and B-Class W169 / W245 generation models, taking into account the seat geometry, rails, and mounts characteristic of this platform. Its placement in the front, right side zone ensures a proper fit to the passenger seat structure, maintaining ergonomics and full compatibility with the factory bench and seat base.

The original backrest design allows for the use of factory mounting points, which facilitates installation and reduces the risk of improper alignment with other upholstery elements and door panels.

Material and finish – grey leather

The backrest is made of grey leather, which matches the factory color configurations used in Mercedes W169 and W245 models. The leather upholstery provides a pleasant-to-the-touch, wear-resistant material that handles daily use and regular cleaning with leather care products well.

The neutral, grey shade facilitates integration with the existing interior – both in light and darker configurations typical for these models. As a result, the backrest works well both as a replacement part after damage and as part of a cabin refresh project.

Functional characteristics and application

The seat backrest plays a key role in driving comfort and passenger back support. The design, tailored to the specifics of the Mercedes W169 / W245 seats, allows for maintaining:

• the correct seating position in the front of the cabin,
• stable back support during city and highway driving,
• visual consistency with other seat and upholstery elements.

This component is particularly useful when replacing a damaged backrest, repairing after a collision, or during gradual interior restoration when you want to preserve the original character of your Mercedes.

Used condition and benefits of choosing OEM parts

The backrest comes from the secondary market, which allows you to combine cost-effectiveness with the preservation of factory geometry and fitment. Choosing a used OEM element from the Seats and benches category is a solution that often ensures better installation compatibility than non-original replacements, especially in the interior area, where precision of fit and color matching are crucial.

Before installation, it is recommended to perform a standard inspection of the upholstery and backrest structure, and if necessary – carry out basic restoration work (cleaning, leather maintenance) to fully utilize the potential of this element in your car.

When planning a broader cabin transformation – combining the replacement of seats, steering wheels, and multimedia systems – it is worth using practical advice on selecting and installing secondary market components, which you will find in the article Premium interior for half the price: second-hand seats, steering wheels, and multimedia.
