Purpose and fitment

The presented item is designed as a rear right door for the Mercedes W204 body style, maintaining factory geometry and mounting points. Its placement on the rear right section of the vehicle ensures compatibility with original hinges, locks, glass, and accessory wiring, which facilitates the transfer of equipment from the previously installed door.

The Obsidian Black Metallic color in paint code 197 allows for an aesthetic match to the factory body finish, limiting the scope of necessary paint work and helping to maintain a consistent stylistic line of the vehicle.

Technical and structural characteristics

The door belongs to the Doors and door panels category, meaning it is a full-size body panel responsible for side rigidity, passenger protection, and the proper operation of windows and seals. The structure is prepared for the installation of factory internal components, such as upholstery, guides, wiring harnesses, or locking mechanisms.

The properly selected weight of the component promotes the maintenance of the vehicle's correct balance and the proper operation of hinges and locks, which translates into correct closing and stable seating of the door in the body frame. The use of original sheet metal with the correct thickness and shape supports the preservation of factory deformation zones and interior acoustics.

Color and visual aspects

The finish in Obsidian Black Metallic - 197 is a popular, deep black metallic paint used in many Mercedes W204 equipment configurations. Thanks to this, the door fits well into the body's stylistic line, and the metallic structure of the paint allows for a consistent visual effect after proper alignment and potential paint correction.

Choosing a component in the same color significantly facilitates the process of post-accident repair or renovation, reducing the time needed for surface preparation and color matching, as well as reducing the risk of visible differences between individual body panels.

Condition, application, and benefits of installation

The item is in used condition, which allows for an economical replacement of damaged doors while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. Choosing original doors from dismantling promotes the preservation of factory mounting gaps, proper seal adhesion, and correct cooperation with locks and window mechanisms.

In practice, the installation of such a prepared panel enables:

• restoration of the correct geometry of the side part of the body,
• preservation of the factory level of structural rigidity,
• easy transfer of equipment from the existing door,
• limitation of the scope of bodywork to the necessary minimum.
