Purpose and function of the interior mirror

This rearview mirror is designed for installation inside the vehicle, in the driver's rear field of vision. Its photochromatic working surface automatically adjusts the tint level to suit lighting conditions, which:

• reduces the glare effect at night,
• improves the comfort of observing the situation behind the vehicle,
• supports safe lane changes and maneuvering.

This solution is particularly beneficial when driving on expressways, where the intense headlights of vehicles behind you can make it difficult to concentrate.

Design, colors and integration with the interior

The mirror is finished in black, harmoniously complementing most factory interior finishes in the W166 GLE. The neutral, understated shade facilitates integration with the headliner, center console, and other cockpit elements, maintaining a cohesive, elegant cabin appearance.

The well-thought-out housing design ensures good visibility while minimizing light reflections. The mirror's design avoids obstructing the driver's field of vision and works with the factory windshield mount.

Performance parameters and condition of the element

The mirror is a used item, which means it comes from a dismantled vehicle and has been verified for continued serviceability. This type of part is a sensible choice for users looking for original components at a better price than new replacements.

Positioned in the rear of the vehicle, the driver's field of vision ensures optimal control of the situation behind the vehicle. The mirror's photochromatic function supports stable, predictable behavior in changing light conditions, which is important both in city traffic and on the highway.

Benefits of using an original Mercedes mirror

Choosing the original Mercedes GLE W166 interior rearview mirror is primarily about:

• factory fit to the vehicle's body and interior design,
• consistent aesthetics with other cabin furnishings,
• maintaining photochromatic functionality in line with the manufacturer's assumptions,
• the ability to maintain the original character of the interior without interfering with the style.

For users who care about maintaining the manufacturer's standards and driving comfort, the use of such an element is a practical and technically justified solution.
