Trunk Lid Hinge Purpose and Function

The presented hinge is dedicated to the rear, right side of the trunk lid in W205 series models. It is responsible for stable lid guidance during opening and closing, ensuring the correct geometry of its operation and proper load transfer to the body structure. Thanks to its factory design, compatibility with original mounting points and other lid mechanism components is maintained.

Obsidian Black Metallic Color – Visual Matching

The hinge is finished in Obsidian Black Metallic – 197, which helps to limit the scope of additional painting work in accident repairs or replacement of worn-out parts. For users who care about body aesthetics, this means a consistent look of the trunk lid edges and surrounding panels, without visible shade differences.

Mounting Characteristics and Application

The placement on the vehicle specified as rear – right side facilitates unambiguous part selection during repair. The hinge works with the trunk lid structure and components from the same group, such as gas springs or locks, creating a complete system responsible for the safe and smooth operation of the rear lid. Original origin from the Mercedes brand promotes the preservation of factory assembly tolerances and the correct operation of the entire mechanism.

Used Condition and Benefits of Choosing OEM Parts

The part is offered as a used part, allowing for economical repair while maintaining OEM construction. In practice, this means the possibility of restoring full trunk lid functionality without the need to use replacements with uncertain parameters. For workshops and individual users, this is a solution that combines reasonable cost with the preservation of original technical specifications.
