Purpose and Fitment
The offered right rear lamp for the Mercedes C-Class Estate generation S204 has been designed as a component compliant with the manufacturer’s factory standard.

- rear position lighting,
- brake light,
- rear turn signal,
- reflectors.
This configuration allows for consistent, clear signaling and reduces the risk of installation errors during replacement. The original geometry of the lens and the lamp’s interior promotes uniform light distribution, improving vehicle visibility after dark and in adverse weather conditions.
Characteristics of a Used Component
This lamp comes from the secondary market, meaning it is a used part that retains the functionality of original components factory-fitted in Mercedes S204 vehicles. This solution allows for economical vehicle repair while maintaining compliance with the manufacturer’s design.
Choosing an original used rear lamp is particularly beneficial when aiming for a perfect match in shape, lens shade, and lighting characteristics with the other lighting elements in the car.
