Purpose and function of the tailgate lock

The presented lock is a component of the tailgate locking system in the Peugeot 207 model, operating in the rear body area. It is responsible for the stable closure of the trunk lid, reducing play, and properly maintaining the lid's position while driving. A properly functioning lock minimizes the risk of the lid opening unintentionally and supports the tightness of the rear body section.

The element belongs to the Trunk lids and rear parts group, which means it works with hinges, actuators, and other tailgate components to form a cohesive mechanical system. The use of an original design solution facilitates installation and allows for maintaining the lid's operation as intended by the manufacturer.

Construction and placement on the vehicle

The lock operates in the rear zone of the body, on the axis of the trunk lid, where it works with the striker and guiding elements. Placement in the Rear area ensures direct transfer of loads resulting from closing and holding the lid in the closed position. The construction is adapted to the serial mounting points in the Peugeot 207, which limits the need for body modifications.

The product comes from a group of parts dedicated to the Peugeot brand, which promotes compatibility with the factory locking system. The use of the correct lock is particularly important during post-accident repairs, replacement of damaged tailgate components, or restoring full functionality to the trunk.

Performance parameters and service fitment

The trunk lock has been designed for serial application in the Peugeot 207, thanks to which it maintains appropriate mechanism operating tolerances and cooperation with the bodywork system. The product has an assigned OEM part number and available interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific vehicle version in service catalogs and parts selection systems.

Information on placement on the vehicle allows for quick confirmation that this is an element intended for the rear part of the body, and not for other zones of the vehicle. Additionally, the technical data includes the tire aspect ratio, which may be used in internal product classification and filtering systems, although it does not directly affect the function of the lock.

Condition, origin, and practical application

The offered trunk lock comes from the segment of used parts, which is a beneficial solution for economical vehicle repair while maintaining the original construction. This type of component is particularly useful for:

• repairs of the rear body section after a collision,
• replacing a worn or jamming trunk lock,
• restoring proper closing and locking of the trunk.

Product identification in the store system is possible thanks to the SKU marking, which facilitates order processing and communication with the technical department. The use of an original design solution promotes the preservation of the tailgate operating parameters intended by the manufacturer.
