COMPATIBILITY
Confirmed applications for OE number A2189700080 include Mercedes-Benz CLS 218-series vehicles.
Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class C218 Coupe:
• C218 CLS – approximately 2011–2017
• Pre-facelift and facelift applications may use this OE number depending on seat specification
• Petrol and diesel models may use the same basic headrest assembly depending on interior configuration
• Confirmed listings include CLS 350 CDI / CLS 350 BlueTEC C218 applications
• Suitable for RHD vehicles where the seat specification, trim and OE number correspond
This OE number has also been catalogued by used-parts suppliers against the wider C218/X218 CLS 218-series family; however, seat trim, upholstery, colour and equipment can differ considerably between individual vehicles.
Compatibility is NOT determined by engine size alone.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
The front head restraint is an important part of the seat assembly and is designed to support the occupant’s head and help reduce excessive rearward head movement during a rear impact.
The assembly mounts into the upper section of the front seat backrest through its guide posts.
Because Mercedes-Benz offered the CLS with different interior packages and seat specifications, headrests that look similar may differ in:
• Upholstery material
• Leather type and finish
• Colour / interior trim code
• Stitching
• Seat design
• Headrest shape
• Internal mechanism
• Guide/post arrangement
• Equipment specification
For this reason, the OE number and physical design should always be compared before ordering.
SEAT / INTERIOR SYSTEM INFORMATION
Mercedes-Benz C218 models were available with several seat and interior configurations. A headrest from the correct model year may therefore not automatically fit every C218 seat.
Please compare:
• OE number A2189700080
• Headrest shape
• Upholstery colour
• Leather/material finish
• Stitching pattern
• Mounting posts
• Seat type
• Original headrest design
COMMON REASONS FOR REPLACEMENT
• Original headrest missing
• Damaged or broken headrest
• Worn or damaged upholstery
• Damaged mounting posts or mechanism
• Replacement front seat supplied without a headrest
• Interior restoration
• Accident-damaged seat components
• Replacing an incorrect previously fitted headrest
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
The head restraint forms part of the vehicle’s occupant-support system. It should be correctly installed and securely located in the seat guides before the vehicle is used.
Do not use a headrest with damaged mounting posts, locking components or structural damage.
INSTALLATION
Direct replacement into the appropriate front seat when the OE number, seat type and mounting arrangement match.
Professional installation is recommended if there is any uncertainty regarding the seat or head-restraint mechanism.
PROGRAMMING / CODING
No ECU programming or vehicle coding is normally required for a standard mechanical headrest replacement.
IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY NOTE
Please match the part number A2189700080 with your original part wherever possible before purchasing.
Mercedes-Benz CLS C218 seats were supplied in different colours, materials and equipment specifications. Matching the vehicle model and year alone does not guarantee that the upholstery or seat configuration will be identical.
Please also compare the photographs carefully with your existing headrest, particularly the colour, material, stitching, shape and mounting arrangement.
CONDITION
