Removing the Rear Interior Door Panel on a Mercedes CLK C209 / W209 / A209

Dear viewer,
In this video I am showing how one can remove the rear interior paneling. Removing this paneling will be necessary in order to repair common issues, such as with the rear electric window regulator, which will cause the rear windows not to roll down, as well as fixing the annoying seat belt not retracting issues.

I had the pleasure of watching 5 of your videos in a row - this one and the series of 4 on removing the interior trim in plus the preparation for installing a new single din stereo. I thought you did a fine job at explaining the procedure and providing us with quality videos. Thank you very much for the fine detail work.👍... Harry

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Thank you for the kind words! :)

Thank you very much for detailed educational video. Because of your video I was able to change my regulator on my window and all what it cost me $15 for regulator repair kit . And now my other window regulator is broke down and I will be able to change it again with a very low cost. thank you thank you

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

I am very happy to hear that! Thank you for the kind words!

Okay, mine is a 2008 clk350. So it's a little different. But this still helped me figure it out. Thank you.

If you have this problem AND an SRS warning light the most LIKELY issue is an expired SEATBELT BUCKLE SENSOR, 20 pound/25 dollars off ebay. One bolt, takes 5 minutes.

[@dmecklenburg]

Very helpful video. Thank you. Question: If you continue by removing the extender, is the window regulator then an easy access?

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Yes, it will be, but you will also need to remove the seatbelt entirely, as it is in the way.

[@hightrackjimmy]

Is this the same process for the 2006 clk500 convertible? I have a "click" just as the window starts to go down, but then it goes down fine. Great video thx.

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Should be the same or very similar. Can't say a 100% though, as I haven't performed this my vehicle.

[@hoangtiendung6985]

thanks for the info

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

[@Symbiote-Edits]

hi is this the same for 2005 model 220 clk?

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Yes, it is the same procedure

[@keeponcruisin7876]

Thanks for the upload. You're definitely not in Florida or you'd be in the shade.

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Haha, true that! :D

[@Chris-yy5pj]

Do you know if this process is the same for a Cabriolet?

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

As far as I know it is exactly the same.

[@damionbaskin7149]

Seat belt arm is making a ticking noise when it comes out how to fix that it works but makes ticking sound

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Most probably the mechanism itself needs some grease. it is, however, also possible that there are teeth missing in the little cog wheels.

[@damionbaskin7149]

@@EndlessMotorWorks thanks for the response I will check it out thanks again

[@ericlee3421]

The panel I’m trying to remove suddenly appears on the back seat?

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Exactly. This is the magic of editing and a result of not having a tripod.

[@dominator9833]

My 06 CLK500 convertible has no such hook in the door panel and I can't find any video that shows anything similar, how am I meant to remove the panel???

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

Here you go, specifically for the convertible - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYPLc2l7htKFmLc

[@matthewsmith8249]

Same for the C124?

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

I can't confirm if it is the same or not, as I have never taken apart a W124 chassis Mercedes.

[@matthewsmith8249]

@@EndlessMotorWorks Thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate it.

[@Tahasatah]

How do I put the panel back on😂?

[@EndlessMotorWorks]

The assembly process is the reverse of taking it out. The seat belt presenter needs to go through the opening on the panel first. Then you just align the top of the panel to the C pillar and to the metal ridge on the side. Push on it from the top a bit in order for it to sit in its place. Lastly, lock it in place with the plastic hook mechanism in the bottom.

[@Tahasatah]

@@EndlessMotorWorks I think I broke one of the plastic hooks but we good😩
