Purpose and fitment for Mercedes A-Class W168

The presented mirror has been designed specifically for the Mercedes-Benz A-Class W168 model, intended for the left side of the vehicle. The housing construction, mounting method, and mirror geometry are adapted to the factory mounting points, which facilitates the replacement of a damaged element and allows for the preservation of the original body line.

Positioning on the driver's side ensures a proper field of view in both urban and extra-urban traffic, and the correctly selected mirror angle supports safe lane changing and maneuvering in tight parking spaces.

Color and aesthetics – Polar Silver Metallic 761

The mirror is finished in the factory color Polar Silver Metallic – 761, characteristic of many A-Class W168 units. The metallic paint coating ensures consistency with the original body paint, reducing the need for additional painting after installation, provided the car has the same color code.

Thanks to the preservation of the correct shade and paint structure, the mirror allows for an aesthetic repair of the side area, restoring a uniform look to the vehicle without visible tonal differences between body parts.

Technical and functional characteristics

As an element from the Wing Door Mirrors category, the product is responsible for proper observation of the surroundings on the left side of the vehicle. The mirror's construction is adapted to the specifics of the W168 body, which translates into:

• stable mounting to the driver's door,
• proper profiling of the housing relative to the pillar and window line,
• maintenance of proper aerodynamics in the side body area.

The used component allows for an economical repair after a collision or parking damage, while maintaining the original quality of workmanship characteristic of the Mercedes brand.

Condition, origin, and benefits of choosing a used mirror

The mirror comes from dismantling and is offered as a used original part. This type of solution is particularly beneficial for users who want to keep the car in a configuration close to the factory one while optimizing repair costs. The original construction ensures proper fitment with the door and compatibility with the factory solutions used in the Mercedes A-Class W168.

Choosing a used mirror from dismantling also supports a more responsible approach to vehicle operation – it limits the production of new parts and allows for the effective use of existing components.
