Characteristics as a used part

The item comes from disassembly, which allows for maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications while reducing costs compared to a new component. For many users, this is a reasonable compromise between quality and budget, especially during repairs and interior retrofitting.

Choosing an original, used USB-C charging port is particularly beneficial when you want to maintain the factory standard of workmanship and full compatibility with the vehicle's electrical system.

Technical support and part selection

The charging port is marked with a dedicated OEM part number and has interchangeable numbers, which facilitates precise identification and selection for a specific vehicle configuration. When matching, it is worth using the manufacturer's markings and information about the location on the vehicle to ensure full installation compatibility.
