Purpose and body fitment

The presented housing is designed for installation on the left side of the vehicle, in place of the factory wing mirror of Mercedes A-Class W169 and B-Class W245 models. The construction is based on the manufacturer's original geometry, which facilitates proper alignment with the mirror base and the door line. As a result, the continuity of the body lines and proper aerodynamics in the mirror area are maintained after replacement.

Color and finish Kosmos Black Metallic

The housing is finished in Kosmos Black Metallic – 191, characteristic of many Mercedes paint configurations. The metallic coating provides color depth and an aesthetic match to the bodywork in the same shade, reducing the need for additional painting if the paint code matches. This solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs and minor visual corrections.

Protective and operational function

As an external mirror component, the housing performs several important technical functions:

• protects the mirror glass and any wiring from moisture and dirt,
• stabilizes the shape of the entire mirror assembly, helping to reduce vibrations while driving,
• supports the maintenance of proper airflow around the mirror, which is important for acoustic comfort.

By using an original housing from the Mirror components group, you can restore the proper operating conditions of the mirror without interfering with the door's structural design.

Characteristics of the used component

The product comes from dismantling and is offered as a used body component. This type of part represents a favorable compromise between repair costs and maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. A used mirror housing is a good solution in situations where the priority is to restore full functionality and a consistent vehicle appearance within a controlled service budget.

Selection support and additional materials

When selecting used body components and consumables, it is worth following similar principles as with key vehicle systems – helpful tips on how to safely choose second-hand parts can be found in the article: Second-hand braking system: how to safely select discs, calipers, and ABS?. The inspection procedures contained therein can largely be applied to assessing the visual and technical condition of other used components.
