Benefits of Using an Original Seat Belt Assembly

Choosing an original seat belt assembly for your Mercedes W169 / W245 offers several practical advantages:

• factory fitment to the body – no need for modifications to mountings or guides,

• verifiable by OEM numbers – simplifies selecting the correct variant for your specific body style and equipment.

Consequently, this seat belt assembly can be used both as a replacement for a damaged part after an accident and for professional post-collision repairs where restoring full functionality of the safety system is required.
