Characteristics and purpose
This interior rearview mirror for the Mercedes C-Class, E-Class, and E-Class Coupe models of the W204, W207, and W212 generations is designed to be mounted in the rear of the cabin, on the windshield. The design ensures stable mounting and adequate rigidity, which translates into reduced vibration and a clear view while driving.
The Alpaca Gray color scheme combined with the black finish creates a subdued, elegant look that blends well with the typical interior configurations of these models. This allows the mirror not only to be functional but also maintains visual cohesion with the rest of the cockpit.
Construction and functional properties
This mirror is a rearview mirror and was designed in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's standards. The glass geometry and carefully selected curvature provide a wide field of view, making it easier to monitor the situation behind the vehicle during city driving and on the highway.
Key features of this model include:
- Factory fit for specified Mercedes generations, which makes installation easier and ensures correct positioning relative to the driver.
- Subdued colors allow you to maintain a harmonious look of the interior, without the visual contrasts typical of substitutes.

Condition, origin and technical aspects
This part is offered as a used part, sourced from a Mercedes vehicle dismantling. This means it retains the original manufacturer's specifications, including geometry, surface finish, and compatibility with the factory mounting bracket in the given body model.
To choose the right mirror, it is worth paying attention to:
- compatibility with body generation (W204, W207, W212),
- location in the vehicle – interior rearview mirror,
- interior colors to maintain visual consistency of the cabin.
The original origin allows for seamless integration with existing finishing elements, without the need for modifications or additional adapters.

Installing this Mercedes interior rearview mirror is highly recommended if your existing mirror is damaged, cracked, or excessively worn. Replacing it with an original component allows you to restore:
- proper rear visibility,
- comfort of everyday use,
- consistent interior appearance consistent with factory specifications.
A used component represents a reasonable compromise between cost and maintaining manufacturer standards, which is important for both fleet and private cars.
