Purpose and fitment for Ford Focus Mk3

The described window is a factory component intended for installation in the rear part of the body on the left side of the Ford Focus Mk3 model. By maintaining the original geometry and correct edge profile, it ensures proper adhesion to the seal and stable seating in the body frame. The use of AS2-type glass means that the window meets the required safety and light transmission standards for side windows, which is important both from a regulatory perspective and for driving comfort.

Technical characteristics of the side window

As an element from the Car windows group, the rear side quarter window is responsible for proper visibility in the rear pillar area and stabilization of the vehicle's side structure. AS2 glass is tempered and designed to shatter into small, less dangerous fragments in the event of damage, which reduces the risk of injury. Precisely formed edges facilitate installation in the original mounting points, and the appropriately selected glass thickness supports body rigidity and reduces wind noise.

Use in repairs and renovations

This component is particularly useful for post-collision repairs, replacing a cracked or scratched window, and for renovating the Ford Focus Mk3 body. A used window allows you to maintain a consistent vehicle appearance while reducing costs compared to new components. It is a good solution for both body and paint shops and individual users who want to restore the full functionality and aesthetics of the side body section.

Benefits of choosing an original Ford window

Choosing an original rear side quarter window for the Ford Focus Mk3 means maintaining factory fitment, correct glass curvature, and compatibility with existing seals and trim strips. This translates into a reduced risk of leaks, rattling, or unwanted vibrations while driving. Original AS2 glass ensures the appropriate level of safety while maintaining acoustic and optical comfort inside the vehicle.
