Purpose and vehicle placement

The presented window is dedicated to the rear right section of the Ford Focus Mk3 body, in the area of the rear side quarter window. Placement on the passenger side at the rear allows for maintaining the correct geometry of the glazing, proper sealing, and aesthetic alignment with the body lines.

The AS2 glass standard means that the window meets the requirements for light transmission and operational safety, which is important both for daily use and during technical inspections.

Technical characteristics of AS2 glass

Glass marked with the AS2 class is used in side and rear vehicle glazing, where adequate visibility is required while limiting excessive interior heating. This type of window:

• ensures proper transparency and clarity of the surroundings for passengers,
• maintains optical consistency with the other windows in the vehicle,
• is adapted for operation in typical passenger car usage conditions.

By maintaining factory optical and dimensional parameters, the window works well with seals, moldings, and body components in the rear part of the vehicle.

Component condition and benefits of using a used part

The offered window is a used component, which allows for economical vehicle repair while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. In many cases, using a dismantled part allows for matching the glass tint to the other windows in the car, which can be difficult when installing a single, brand-new window.

Choosing an original used window is a cost-effective solution that is also technically consistent with the Ford Focus Mk3 body structure, without the need for installation modifications.

Practical installation tips

When replacing the rear side window, it is recommended to:

• check the condition of the seals and finishing moldings in the rear right body area,
• use appropriate installation materials in accordance with the manufacturer's technology,
• check the correct seating of the window in the body frame for tightness and lack of stress.

Professional installation allows for maintaining body tightness, reducing wind noise, and ensuring the durability of the connection between the window and the bodywork.
