Technical characteristics of the rearview mirror

This rearview mirror is a rearview mirror designed specifically for Mercedes X253 series vehicles. Its automatic dimming technology responds to the intensity of light from behind the vehicle, reducing glare and improving the clarity of the mirror image when driving at night or in heavy traffic.

The porcelain color blends harmoniously with the light interior configurations, creating a cohesive, aesthetically pleasing look throughout the cabin. The mirror is designed to be mounted at the rear of the vehicle, using the factory mounting points, for easy integration with the existing headliner and trim.

Functionality and comfort of use

An auto-dimming rearview mirror significantly improves the comfort of everyday driving. Automatic dimming adjustment:

• reduces eye fatigue when driving at night,
• reduces the risk of being momentarily blinded by the headlights of vehicles travelling behind,
• provides a stable, clear image without the need to manually change the mirror position.

This solution is particularly beneficial in city traffic and on highways, where frequent changes in light intensity can affect driver concentration. Using an original mirror designed for the X253 allows for the preservation of the factory interior character and predictable system operation.

Condition, origin and use

The part is offered in used condition, meaning it comes from a dismantled vehicle but retains full functionality as intended by the manufacturer. This type of part is a good choice for users seeking a factory-fit solution within a reasonable budget, while maintaining the high quality of workmanship characteristic of the Mercedes brand.

The mirror is designed for installation in the rear of the cabin, in place of the factory rearview mirror. The X253 series design allows for easy alignment with the original bracket and the auto-dimming electrical system, allowing for efficient installation by a specialized service center.

Advantages of choosing an original Mercedes X253 rearview mirror

By choosing the Mercedes X253 Auto Dimming Rearview Mirror Porcelain Color, you gain:

• factory fit to the vehicle interior and existing mounting points,
• consistent aesthetics thanks to the porcelain finish,
• increased comfort of driving at night thanks to automatic dimming,
• a solution in line with the vehicle manufacturer's assumptions, without compromising on ergonomics.

This is a practical way to restore full functionality of the interior after damage to the original mirror or to replace the element with a version with an auto-dimming function if the previous solution did not offer this option.
