Purpose and function in the vehicle

The rear seat armrest backrest is designed for installation in the rear cabin area, for passengers sitting in the back. This element serves a dual function: it provides comfortable forearm support and ensures a stable place for drinks thanks to the built-in cup holder. This solution improves travel comfort, especially on longer journeys, and helps keep the interior tidy.

As a part originally designed for a specific generation of Mercedes, the armrest backrest maintains the correct proportions, tilt angle, and folding mechanism, which translates into predictable seat behavior and trouble-free operation for users.

Material and finish

The upholstery is made of genuine leather, which ensures consistency with the factory finish of the Mercedes interior. The leather surface is resistant to typical operational loads, such as frequent folding and unfolding of the armrest or contact with passengers' clothing and accessories.

The leather in this element:

• makes cleaning easy – dirt can be removed with standard leather upholstery care products,
• provides an aesthetic, consistent look with other seat elements,
• maintains the appropriate rigidity and stability of the backrest structure.

Comfort of use and ergonomics

The built-in cup holder increases the functionality of the rear seat, allowing for the safe transport of drinks without the risk of spilling. This solution is particularly beneficial for families and those who frequently travel with passengers in the back seat.

The armrest backrest has been designed to:

• provide comfortable support for two passengers sitting in the back,
• not restrict the ability to fold the seat backrest (in accordance with the vehicle's factory design),
• maintain the stability of the cup holder while driving on uneven surfaces.

Characteristics of the used part

The presented armrest is a used item, sourced from dismantling. This means it retains the original construction and fitment intended by the manufacturer, while also providing an economical solution compared to new components. This type of part is a good choice for post-accident repairs, replacing worn interior elements, or restoring full functionality to the rear seat.

Application in the Seats and benches category
