Purpose and console fitment

This ashtray has been designed specifically for the Mercedes S-Class W221 generation, intended for installation in the front of the cabin. As a component from the Console Parts category, it ensures proper fitment with factory panels, guides, and covers. The design allows for installation in the manufacturer-designated location, maintaining the original functional layout of the centre console without the need for modifications.

Appearance and interior integration

The black colour of the housing allows for a harmonious blend with most interior configurations used in the W221, whether in versions with dark or contrasting finishes. The discreet design of the ashtray does not visually dominate, ensuring it remains consistent with the elegant style of the cockpit. The material used is resistant to typical operational wear, and the surface is designed to be easy to keep clean.

Functionality in the front cabin area

Its placement in the front of the vehicle provides convenient access for both the driver and passenger. The opening and closing mechanism is integrated into the ashtray body, allowing for quick use while driving and reducing the risk of accidental spillage. Thanks to its factory design, the component works seamlessly with other console parts, maintaining the full functionality of storage compartments and control panels.

Characteristics of the used component

As a used part, this ashtray is a sensible choice for users looking to restore the completeness of their interior or replace a worn component without the need to invest in a brand-new unit. Its original origin ensures proper fitment and stable mounting in factory points. This type of solution is particularly beneficial for repairs, restorations, or returning the car to a condition close to factory specifications.
