Buying The Right Part
1. Use the part number. Nearly every Mercedes-Benz part has a 10 digit part number stamped or engraved on it (e.g. A1298203026 or 1298203026). If this item's part number matches yours, then then the part will fit your car.
If we don't have your number in stock, we may have a superseded part which is still compatible with your car, so please message us and we will diagnose this for you.
2. No part number, or still not sure? No problem, just contact us with the following information:
Then our experienced support team will diagnose this for you. In the absence of a part number we will assist as best we can, but please make sure that you're satisfied before buying.

When dispatching, we pack our orders securely with good padding and correct labelling. And, our warranty and returns policies are simple and robust for peace of mind.

Returns
Returns Seal
Your product will arrive sealed inside a spacious transparent bag with a returns seal closing it shut. Please immediately inspect it for defects or differences without opening the bag. If the returns seal is broken (or the bag is damaged or ripped) then we cannot accept a return; it can only be processed as a warranty claim (see Warranty below).
Returns Scenarios
Contact us if you have any further questions about returns.
Warranty
Our products are covered by a minimum three month warranty period at no additional charge (see product description for warranty length). The warranty period begins on the date of dispatch, which can be found in your order confirmation email.
If your product has become defective and is within its warranty period, contact us right away and we'll ask you to send it to us for inspection. When sending such items to us, customers must initially pay for delivery costs including taxes and import fees. Once we confirm its defectiveness we will refund you for this cost of return delivery including taxes and import fees, and will replace the product with the same one free of charge.
Warranty is void where damage has been sustained by the customer, which includes water damage, or evidence of incorrect use or fitment that may directly or indirectly have led to any components’ failure. Where relevant we will ask for written evidence of the procedure used to fit the part and the qualifications of the fitter.
Contact us if you have any further questions about warranty, including extending your warranty period if you would like to.
