Technical characteristics of the photochromatic mirror

This mirror is a rearview mirror designed for interior installation. Its auto-photochromatic technology allows for smooth dimming in response to intense rear light, reducing visual fatigue when driving at night or in city conditions.

The element is designed for installation in the rear of the cabin, in the standard interior mirror mounting location. The gray housing blends harmoniously with typical Mercedes interior finishes, maintaining a consistent, factory-style cockpit appearance.

Intended use and fit for Mercedes

This mirror was designed specifically for the Mercedes CLK W209, ensuring a perfect fit with the vehicle's factory mount and installation. Its unique design ensures proper mirror geometry, an adequate field of view, and compatibility with the factory solutions used in this model.

Thanks to the use of an original solution, installation is straightforward, without the need for interior modifications or additional adapters. This is a beneficial solution for both accident repairs and replacing a worn mirror with a functional used one.

Condition, functionality and practical use

The mirror is offered as a used part, allowing for cost-effective vehicle repair while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. This type of component is particularly useful when the existing mirror:

• lost the auto-dimming function,
• has a damaged panel or casing,
• shows signs of wear that make comfortable use difficult.

The use of an auto-dimming mirror improves driving ergonomics at night, on the highway, and in city traffic, where frequent glare from rear lights is particularly bothersome. Stable, automatic dimming allows the driver to focus on the road without having to manually adjust the mirror.

Advantages of installing an original rearview mirror

Choosing an original rear-view mirror for your Mercedes brings a number of technical and functional benefits:

• Factory fit – maintaining the original field of view geometry and compatibility with the vehicle interior.
• Consistent aesthetics – the grey shade of the housing integrates well with the dashboard and headliner, without appearing like an “alien” element.
• Night driving comfort – automatic dimming reduces glare, promoting calmer and more predictable driving.
• Reasonable repair cost – a used part allows you to restore the full functionality of the mirror without having to invest in a new part.
