The part is built to the following specification: Fitting Position: Front Left, Fitting Position: Front Right, Weight [kg]: 0, 424 kg, Control/Trailing Arm Type: Brass, Supplementary Article/Supplementary Info: Ceramic. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. Compatible with SMART vehicles; use the vehicle selector above to confirm exact fitment for your make, model, and engine variant. Fitment data is sourced from TecDoc, the authoritative European parts catalogue. This part supersedes original equipment references: 0002271V003000005, 0002271V003000005 S1, 0002271V007000005, 0002271V007000005 S1 and 189 more.
