W210 '02
Question about pre facelift & facelift frontdoors.
Hey everybody, unfortunately a while ago I got in an accident with my beautiful W210, the car rammed me from the left and left the car with huge dents on the front door and the fender the insurance guy declared the car total loss and I won't do that to the car, there is no problem with the car, the door and the fender need to be replaced and painted that's all.
So I'm now searching for a door and a fender, I got a fender but I'm thinking that it isn't a real piece, is there any way of confirming that it is an original Mercedes fender?
And my second question is about the door, is there any difference between the door of a pre facelift W210 and a facelift W210 if there are, how can I see this?
My car is from the beginning of 2002 so it's a facelift model and I'm worried that if I'll get an pre facelift model door that the leather interior or the mechanics in the window won't fit on the door, or am I just paranoid?
I'm going to buy the door trim seperatly from Mercedes, the door handle and the mirror will be used from the door that is on the car at the moment.
Is there any difference internally, the airbags, the windows mechanism, speakers and such. Also I'm going to put the interior piece over, so the leather plus the wood trim and the little speaker in the corner of the door are coming off the car and going to be put on the replacement door, will that fit if it is pre facelift.
Thanks in advance.
