Intended Use and Fitment for Mercedes W164
The presented seat belt has been designed for installation in the front of the vehicle, on the left side, in Mercedes W164 class models. The appropriate geometry of the retractor, mountings, and belt guide allows for correct positioning relative to the driver's seat and the body pillar, which translates to stable body support while driving.
Thanks to its construction compliant with factory Mercedes standards, the part integrates with original body mounting points and factory seats, without the need for modifications or adaptations. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs or for restoring the car to a condition that meets technical inspection requirements.
Construction and Performance Parameters
The seat belt is made in a classic black color, which facilitates matching with most interior configurations used in the Mercedes W164. The neutral shade blends well with both light and dark upholstery, maintaining the cabin's understated, factory character.
Its placement in the front zone on the driver's side means the component is responsible for the primary safety of the person operating the vehicle. The design of the retractor and locking mechanism is engineered to react to sudden changes in speed and acceleration, supporting the driver's stable position in emergency situations.
Condition, Application, and Benefits of Installation
The offered belt comes from the secondary market, allowing for an economical repair of the safety system while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. For many users, this is a sensible compromise between cost and preserving the original component design.
Installing a properly selected seat belt on the driver's side offers a number of benefits:
- Restoring full functionality of the safety system in the front left zone of the vehicle.
- Maintaining the factory belt routing geometry, which promotes predictable behavior during sudden braking.
- Cohesive interior appearance thanks to the black belt, matching typical cabin configurations in the Mercedes W164.
- The ability to use original mounting points, without the need for intervention in the body structure.
