Purpose and Fitment

The presented side window glass is specifically designed for the BMW U06 series body and is installed in the rear right door. The glass construction is adapted to factory guides, seals, and lifting mechanisms, allowing for installation in place of the original part without the need for body modifications.

Proper edge profiling and correct glass thickness ensure a tight door seal, correct interaction with seals, and reduction of aerodynamic noise during driving.

AS2 Glass Characteristics

Glass designated with the AS2 classification meets stringent safety and light transmission requirements for side windows. This type of glass is tempered, which increases its resistance to operational stress and external factors.

In case of damage, tempered glass shatters into small, relatively blunt fragments, reducing the risk of serious injury. This makes AS2 side window glass a safe solution that complies with the requirements for modern BMW constructions.

Item Condition and Benefits of Choosing Used Parts

The offered window glass is a used item, sourced from vehicle dismantling, which allows for a reasonable repair cost while maintaining original quality. Choosing original glass from the aftermarket is a good solution for users who want to maintain a consistent appearance of the glazing and proper fit with factory seals and guides.

Function in the Body and User Comfort

The right rear door window glass in the BMW U06 is responsible not only for visibility but also for the rigidity of the side body, acoustic comfort, and protection of the interior from atmospheric conditions. Properly selected glass limits air turbulence when the window is slightly open, reduces noise, and ensures stable operation of the lifting mechanism.

Replacing a damaged or scratched window with a functional part restores the aesthetics of the vehicle's side line, improves visibility, and eliminates potential leaks that could lead to interior dampness.
