This type of component is particularly recommended for maintenance repairs and restoring the factory look of the vehicle when compliance with equipment installed on the production line is a priority.

• post-accident repairs of the rear right body section,
• replacing a damaged or leaking lamp,

Thanks to the factory design, the installation process is predictable, which facilitates maintaining proper gaps between body elements and correct alignment of the lamp relative to the trunk lid and bumper.
