Purpose and fitment

The backrest has been designed specifically for the rear right part of the seat in W164 series models, which ensures a precise fit to the body structure and factory mounting points. As a result, installation is straightforward, without the need for modifications or adaptations, and the seat geometry remains in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.

The item belongs to the Seats and benches group, which facilitates selection when completing or partially replacing rear seat equipment, e.g., during post-collision repairs, upholstery wear, or interior upgrades.

Material and finish

The upholstery is made of grey microfibre fabric, which provides the look and comfort characteristic of the Mercedes brand. The surface is resistant to typical operational loads, such as frequent passenger entry or contact with seat belts, while being easy to maintain using standard fabric care products.

The grey colour scheme allows for harmonious integration of the backrest into most factory W164 interior configurations, without a "mismatched" effect or visual inconsistency. This is particularly important when partially replacing rear seat components while the remaining parts remain original.

Functionality in the rear passenger area

Positioned in the rear right part of the vehicle, the backrest is responsible for the comfort of one of the main passenger seats. A correctly selected component restores proper back support, seating stability, and the consistency of the seat line, which is important for both ergonomics and passenger safety.

Replacing the backrest with an original component allows for maintaining the factory seat geometry, which is essential for, among other things, proper seat belt routing and compatibility with other rear seat elements.

Characteristics of the used component

The offered component is used, which in practice means real savings compared to a new part while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. This type of solution is particularly beneficial for interior repairs where colour and material matching to other cabin parts is crucial.

Choosing an original, used backrest allows you to avoid problems typical of aftermarket replacements with uncertain geometry or different upholstery shades, while simultaneously reducing the costs of the entire service operation.

Expansion and completion of the rear seat

When planning a wider interior upgrade, it is worth using practical tips on selecting seats, upholstery, and multimedia equipment – you will find them in the article Premium interior for half the price: second-hand seats, steering wheels, and multimedia, which discusses issues of compatibility, installation, and the cost-effectiveness of purchasing used cabin elements.
