- Compatibility with the original safety system – maintaining the factory concept of rear bench passenger protection.
As an original Mercedes part, the belt is designed with strict requirements for strength, tensile resistance, and operation across a wide range of operating temperatures. This allows it to be used as a replacement for a damaged or worn belt without modifying the body structure.
