Intended Use and Fitment for Mercedes-Benz A‑Class W168

The mirror presented is intended for installation on the right side of the body in the Mercedes-Benz A‑Class W168 model. The construction is based on the manufacturer's factory design, which promotes proper fit with the door, maintains the original side profile, and ensures correct operation of the adjustment mechanism. Its placement on the passenger side provides the driver with a clear view of the side and rear areas, which is important both when maneuvering in the city and when driving at higher speeds.

Technical Specifications and Color

The mirror belongs to the category of Exterior Mirrors, meaning it meets the requirements for visibility and safety in road traffic. The housing in Mica Coral Orange shade has been selected to match Mercedes' factory paint palette, ensuring the part integrates well with the rest of the bodywork. The orange color reduces the need for additional painting when replacing a damaged mirror with one of the same color.

Application in Body Repairs and Upgrades

The right mirror in Mica Coral Orange is suitable for both typical post-collision replacement and for refreshing the appearance of the side bodywork. It can be used in:

• repairs after parking damage or scuffs,
• completing missing parts after previous bodywork and paint interventions,
