The source listing showed a price of €215.00 when the data was collected. Prices and availability can change, so treat this as a reference rather than a permanent offer.
Compatibility and fitment checks
Check that the vehicle outlet can supply the required current and that the box can be secured without obstructing seats, airbags or controls. Cooling ability depends strongly on ambient temperature and ventilation.
Before purchase, compare the complete number with the existing item and request confirmation against the vehicle identification number where vehicle-specific fitment is involved. Also check dimensions, connectors, mounting points, colour and any required option codes.
Installation and use considerations
Pre-chill contents where possible, place the box where its ventilation openings remain clear and secure it against movement. Avoid leaving it powered from an unswitched socket long enough to discharge the starter battery.
If the work affects electrical systems, vehicle coding, cooling, wheels or any safety-related component, professional installation is the sensible option. Inspect the delivered item before fitting and keep its packaging until compatibility and function have been confirmed.
Who should consider this product?
This product is most relevant to owners and workshops that have already identified A0008205409 as the correct number or are comparing it during a VIN-based parts search. It is less suitable as a speculative purchase based only on a photograph or broad model description.
Our verdict
The genuine Mercedes-Benz 13-Litre Thermoelectric Cool Box is a useful factory-branded travel accessory for moderate cooling needs, not a substitute for a compressor refrigerator or freezer.
