Lower Door Deflector Strip / Ledge

Looking through the parts database I see the following for the lower parts of the front and rear doors:






Per the notes they are only for cars produced 02/2013 and before. My 2015 does not have them. They seem to be seals on the lower, inner edge of the door. I would very much like this as my outer door sills get very dirty and need frequent cleaning. I also think they might reduce noise.

Does anybody know if these will mount to the doors on a facelift W212? Or how they mount to the cars to which they were originally fitted so that I can try to figure out if they would go on mine? Thanks very much for any help!

My luxury 12 without the sport ground effects gets very dirty in the jambs, must be washed each week, especially in the winter. My 13 with sport and AMG stuff ,the jambs don't get dirty at all. I will go out now and look to see if there is a difference.

https://www.mbdirectparts.com/ = front door left 2126904762, right 2126904862 compatible; rear door 2126903782, 2126903882 not compatible. Front & rear attach same way check beneath all doors to see if mounting access exists.

Cool

My 12 is a 3/12 car and my 13 is an 11/12 build, both have the same weather strip. What Koenigstiger just posted is what I have on both cars.

Thank you both very much for your help!

There are no holes in the door into which those pins could clip, however there is a sort of rail that perhaps they would go into. I took some pictures although it is hard to see with the poor contrast from the black paint.

Thank you! That’s where I expected it to go. I would love to have the extra sealing on mine. But unless somebody has removed or replaced theirs and can speak to how it mounts on the door I might just have to gamble and buy one to try it out myself.

Do you not like your door lights or did you just cover it for the photo?
