Intended Use and Fitment for Mercedes W204 / S204

The presented seat belt has been designed for Mercedes C-Class models of the W204 / S204 generation, taking into account the structural requirements of the body and factory mounting points. Its placement on the vehicle is front left side, which means compatibility with the driver's seat in left-hand drive versions.

The black shade of the webbing and trim elements allows for a uniform appearance of the cabin, especially in vehicles with dark upholstery. This makes the belt suitable for use both as a replacement for a damaged part and during interior restoration work.

Construction and Function in the Safety System

The front left seat belt plays a crucial role in the driver protection system, cooperating with seats, airbags, and the vehicle's body structure. The appropriately selected geometry of the retractor, mountings, and guides enables:

• stable positioning of the driver during sudden braking or collision,
• proper cooperation with the vehicle's passive safety systems,
• comfortable adjustment of the webbing length in daily use.

The original Mercedes origin promotes the preservation of factory operating parameters of the retractor mechanism and compatibility with the pillar and seat structure.

Condition, Application, and Benefits of Installation

This part comes from the secondary market, allowing for an economical restoration of the safety system's functionality while retaining a component consistent with the manufacturer's design. Replacing the front left seat belt is particularly recommended after:

• activation of safety systems (e.g., after a collision),
• mechanical damage to the webbing or mounting elements,
• interior modernization, when color matching is required.

Using an original seat belt from the same model line minimizes the risk of installation problems, non-factory fit, or improper operation of the retractor mechanism.
