What to check when buying a used Mercedes-Benz GLS door handle
A used door handle that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
- Specify front/rear and left/right
- State whether it's exterior or interior

Fitment questions
What generation is my Mercedes-Benz GLS and does the year affect which door handle I need?
The GLS has been sold in two generations in the UK: the first-generation X166, produced from 2016 to 2019, and the second-generation X167, which launched in 2020 and is ongoing. Door handles differ between these two generations, so you must match your door handle to the correct generation. Always quote your registration to the breaker to confirm the exact generation before ordering.
Will a door handle from a 2018 GLS fit my 2020 GLS?
A 2018 GLS is an X166 (first generation) and a 2020 GLS is an X167 (second generation), so these sit either side of the generation boundary and the handles are not the same. You should source a door handle specifically from an X167 for a 2020 car. Confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker, as they can check the part numbers directly.
Does it matter whether I need a nearside or offside door handle for my GLS?
Yes, this matters for fitment — the NS (nearside, passenger left) and OS (offside, driver right) handles are not interchangeable. When contacting a breaker, always specify which side you need and which door position (front or rear), as these can differ too. Getting the side wrong is one of the most common ordering mistakes with door handles.
Does the trim level affect which door handle I need — for example, does an AMG Line GLS use a different handle to a standard GLS?
Trim level does not affect door handle fitment on the GLS — an AMG Line, Sport, or standard GLS of the same generation uses the same handle for a given door and side. The handles may vary in finish or colour depending on the trim, but the fixing points and frame are the same, and colour can be resprayed or matched. Focus on confirming generation, door position, and NS or OS side with the breaker rather than trim level.
Does the colour of the door handle matter when buying a used one?
Colour is a preference rather than a fitment requirement — a handle in the wrong colour will still physically fit if it is the correct generation, side, and door position. Many buyers have a used handle resprayed to match their car, which is straightforward and cost-effective. Let the breaker know your colour if you want a closer match, but do not let colour availability stop you finding the right fitment.
I have a 2017 GLS 350d — does the diesel engine affect which door handle I need?
No, the engine makes no difference to door handle fitment on the GLS. A 350d, 400d, or any other engine variant of the same generation will use the same door handle for a given side and door position. Simply confirm the generation (X166 for a 2017 car), the NS or OS side, and the door position with the breaker.
