Intended Use and Fitment for Mercedes W204 Touring
The presented Mercedes W204 Touring rear left seat belt has been specifically designed for the estate body style of this series. Its placement on the rear left side of the vehicle guarantees the correct tape routing geometry and proper functioning of the retractor mechanism at the original mounting points.
The black color is standard in many interior configurations, allowing the part to harmoniously blend with the factory cabin styling. This is a practical solution for both post-accident repairs and for replacing a worn-out belt to restore the full functionality of the safety system.
Seat Belt Construction and Function
The seat belt from this series utilizes a proven design with a retractor mechanism that integrates with the body's factory mounting points. The appropriately selected belt width and its routing on the rear left side enable:
- stable passenger retention in the seat during sudden braking,
- controlled locking action during sudden acceleration or impact,
- correct belt positioning relative to the shoulders and torso, in accordance with the manufacturer's design specifications.
As an OEM part, the belt works with the vehicle's factory safety architecture, which is important for both user comfort and predictable system behavior during road incidents.
Color Scheme and Interior Integration
The black seat belt complements most upholstery types used in the Mercedes W204 Touring. The neutral color allows for:
- a visually cohesive finish of the rear seat without color contrasts,
- easy matching with factory plastics and trim around the pillar and side panels,
- maintaining interior aesthetics after repair or replacement of the part.
This ensures that replacing the belt does not disrupt the overall character of the cabin, which is important for both daily-driven cars and well-maintained examples where preserving the original appearance is key.
Characteristics of the Used Part
The offered seat belt is a used part, allowing for an economical restoration of the safety system's functionality while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. Choosing this solution is particularly beneficial when you prioritize:
- maintaining the factory standard of execution at a reasonable repair cost,
- compatibility with existing mountings and trim elements,
- minimizing vehicle structural modifications by installing a part that matches the factory design.
Prior to installation, standard verification of the retractor mechanism's proper operation and the condition of the belt is recommended, in accordance with service procedures for passive safety components.
