Purpose and Fitment

The presented rear window has been designed specifically for the Mercedes SLK R171 generation, taking into account the roadster's body geometry and characteristic roofline. Its placement in the rear section of the vehicle guarantees correct fitting with the frame and seals, contributing to the stability and airtightness of the body structure.

The use of green-tinted glass maintains a uniform look for the entire car's glazing, which is important both visually and functionally – it reduces interior heating and improves driving comfort in sunny conditions.

AS2 Glass Characteristics

Glass marked with AS2 classification meets stringent safety and light transmission requirements for non-windshield glass. This means the rear window provides adequate visibility while effectively filtering some solar radiation, improving conditions for the driver and passenger.

Thanks to the use of appropriate tempering and laminating technology (in accordance with AS2 standard), the rear window is resistant to typical operational stresses, such as body flex and temperature changes, promoting long-term, stable use.

Color and Body Function

The green tint of the glass has been chosen to harmoniously complement the styling of the Mercedes SLK R171. This type of tinting:

• reduces glare and improves visual comfort while driving,
• positively affects the temperature inside the cabin,
• emphasizes the characteristic, dynamic appearance of the roadster body.

The placement of the window in the rear of the vehicle is crucial for structural rigidity and aerodynamics, therefore using original glass with the correct profile is important both for safety and for maintaining the vehicle's original driving characteristics.

Condition and Benefits of Choosing a Used Part

The offered window is a used part, which significantly reduces repair costs compared to a new component, while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. For many Mercedes owners, choosing this solution is a sensible compromise between quality and budget, especially for accident repairs or restorations.
