Purpose and Body Fitment

The offered part is a complete door skin intended for installation on the front right side of the body in the Mercedes A-Class W176 generation. The construction is based on the original manufacturer's geometry, which allows for the preservation of:

• the correct line of body creases and gaps between panels,
• proper positioning relative to the fender, sill, and pillar,
• compatibility with factory hinges, lock, and seals.

This enables the door to be integrated into the existing body structure without the need for intervention in the vehicle's load-bearing structure, which is important for both safety and subsequent calibration of adjacent components.

South Seas Blue Metallic Color – Repair Benefits

The factory South Seas Blue Metallic paint, code 162, significantly reduces the scope of painting work required for side body repairs. In many cases, touch-up and polishing are sufficient to achieve a visually consistent effect with the rest of the car body, which:

• reduces vehicle downtime in the workshop,
• limits the costs of full element repainting,
• facilitates the preservation of the original finish on a larger part of the body.

The metallic paint structure is particularly important for shade matching – using an originally painted door minimizes the risk of color differences visible in daylight.

Technical Characteristics and Installation

The door belongs to the Doors and Door Panels group, meaning it is designed as a structural and protective body element. The component has a specified weight that complies with the manufacturer's specifications for this reference, ensuring:

• no change in the load distribution on hinges and the pillar,
• correct operation of the lock and door stop,
• no excessive strain on adjustment elements.

The used nature of the part allows for the reuse of the original structure, which is beneficial both economically and in terms of compliance with factory side safety parameters.

Application of Used Parts in Service and Repairs

Choosing used front right doors for the Mercedes W176 is a rational solution for body and paint shops as well as individual users who want to control costs while maintaining manufacturer standards. This type of part is particularly suitable in situations such as:

• repair after a side collision with damage to the door skin,
• correction of corrosion or previous improper body repairs,
• restoring the vehicle to a factory-like condition after modifications.

The original door construction supports proper cooperation with the window, seals, and equipment installation, which facilitates installation and subsequent operation without additional adjustments.

Environmental and Economic Aspect

The use of a used body part aligns with the principles of the circular economy – it reduces the consumption of raw materials and energy needed to produce a new part, while also lowering the overall cost of vehicle repair.
