Intended Use and Body Fitment

The presented side window has been specifically designed for the Mercedes SLK R172 model, taking into account the geometry of the door, guides, and the lifting mechanism. Its placement on the front left side allows for direct replacement of a damaged part without the need for modifications to the bodywork or the window regulator mechanism.

The green shade of the glass is consistent with the factory Mercedes standard, which helps maintain the cohesive aesthetics of the vehicle's entire glazing. As a result, after installation, there are no color discrepancies between the side window and the other windows in the car.

Technical Characteristics of AS2 Glass

Glass marked with the AS2 classification meets the light transmission and safety requirements applicable to side windows in passenger cars. The laminated or tempered construction (according to manufacturer standards) ensures a controlled manner of glass breakage, which reduces the risk of serious injury in the event of a collision.

Choosing the correct side window is important not only for safety but also for:

• proper operation of the window lifting and lowering mechanism,
• door sealing against water and noise,
• maintaining the proper structural rigidity of the door frame.

Condition of the Part and Benefits of Choosing a Used Part

The offered window comes from the circulation of used OEM parts, which allows for maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications while reducing repair costs. Unlike many aftermarket replacements, factory glass is precisely fitted to the seals, guides, and mountings in the Mercedes SLK R172 door.

Choosing a used side window is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs and spot replacements of body parts, where maintaining compatibility with other windows and the factory manufacturing standard is crucial.

Installation and Practical Aspects

The window has been prepared for installation in factory mounting points, which facilitates workshop work and shortens repair time. A correctly selected part from the Car Windows category minimizes the risk of problems with door closing, leaks, or improper operation of the lifting mechanism.

When replacing a side window, it is worth paying attention to the condition of the guides, seals, and the adjustment of the window's position relative to the door frame, in order to achieve even pressure against the seals and a proper fit line to the roof and pillars after installation.
