Fitment questions
Does a Mercedes-Benz CLS have a bonnet latch at all?
Yes, every Mercedes-Benz CLS has a bonnet latch — it is a standard component on all variants regardless of engine, drivetrain or trim level. The CLS is a conventional front-engined car with a hinged bonnet secured by a latch mechanism, so the part genuinely exists across the entire model range.
Which generations of the Mercedes-Benz CLS are there, and does it affect which bonnet latch I need?
The CLS has three generations: the first-generation C219 ran from 2004 to 2010, the second-generation C218 ran from 2011 to 2018 (with a facelift around 2014), and the third-generation C257 launched in 2018. Generation is the single most important factor for bonnet latch fitment, as the front-end structure differs significantly between C219, C218 and C257 — always match the generation first.
Will a bonnet latch from a 2013 CLS fit a 2015 CLS (C218 pre-facelift vs facelift)?
Both years sit within the second-generation C218 platform, but 2014 marks the facelift boundary where front-end panels including the bonnet surround area were revised. The bonnet latch mechanism may or may not interchange across that 2013-to-2015 boundary — confirm the specific part number against your registration with the breaker before buying.
Does the trim level affect which bonnet latch I need — for example, does an AMG Line or AMG variant use a different latch?
Trim level does not affect the bonnet latch — the underlying latch mechanism is shared across standard, AMG Line and full AMG variants within the same generation, as it is a structural component rather than a cosmetic one. You may find that AMG bonnets have a slightly different profile or vent arrangement, but the latch itself is the same; tell the breaker your generation and registration rather than your trim level.
I have a first-generation CLS (C219, 2004–2010) — does the year within that generation matter for the bonnet latch?
The C219 did receive minor updates during its run, so it is worth confirming the exact model year with the breaker rather than assuming all C219 latches are identical. As a general guide, parts from within the same pre-facelift or post-facelift period of the C219 are more likely to correspond, but confirm against your registration to be safe.
Does the engine — diesel, petrol, or AMG — change which bonnet latch a CLS needs?
No, the engine has no bearing on which bonnet latch you need, as the latch is a front-end structural component common across all engine variants within a given generation. Whether your CLS is a 220d, 350, 400 or a 63 AMG, the latch is determined by generation and facelift period — not what is under the bonnet.
