Purpose and Function of the Seatbelt Feeder in the Mercedes CLK W209

The left seatbelt feeder in the CLK W209 model is responsible for automatically extending the seatbelt after opening the door and starting the vehicle. This way, the driver has the belt within reach, without having to reach far behind their back, which improves user comfort and encourages regular seatbelt use.

The component works in conjunction with the factory seatbelt mechanism and the vehicle's electrical system, ensuring smooth movement of the feeder arm and predictable operation under typical operating conditions.

Compatibility and Body Fitment

The presented feeder has been designed for installation on the left side of the vehicle, in accordance with the factory configuration of the Mercedes CLK W209 body. The appropriate fit of the mounting geometry and arm length allows for correct cooperation with the original seat and B-pillar.

Thanks to a design consistent with the manufacturer's solution, the correct position of the belt feeding point relative to the user's shoulder is maintained, which reduces the risk of upholstery abrasion and improves daily ergonomics.

Characteristics of the Used Component

The seatbelt feeder is a used part, sourced from disassembly. Such components are often chosen for repairs of vehicles where the feeder's arm, gearbox, or drive mechanism has been mechanically damaged, as well as for restoring full seatbelt system functionality after a collision or many years of use.

Choosing a used feeder allows for consistency with the vehicle's original equipment, while also reducing costs compared to new aftermarket parts. It is a practical solution for workshops and individual users who expect factory fitment and proper cooperation with the existing system.

Application in the Seatbelt System and Installation Benefits

Installing a functional seatbelt feeder on the left side directly impacts:

• Seatbelt fastening comfort – the belt is presented in a convenient position, without the need for excessive torso leaning,
• Interior ergonomics – the feeder arm operates within the range intended by the manufacturer, without interfering with upholstery and trim elements,
• Maintenance of factory functionality – the original concept of seatbelt operation in the CLK W209 coupe body is preserved.

A correctly selected seatbelt feeder also facilitates service work – installation occurs at the designated mounting points, without the need for structural modifications, which reduces repair time and the risk of subsequent looseness or incorrect arm positioning.

How to Select the Correct Seatbelt Feeder by OEM Number

When selecting a seatbelt feeder for the Mercedes CLK W209, it is crucial to verify compatibility by OEM number and interchangeable part numbers. This helps avoid situations where the component comes from a different body version or differs in the arm's operating range. It is advisable to compare the markings with the existing part or the vehicle's service documentation.
