Characteristics and purpose of the mirror

This Mercedes interior rearview mirror is designed for installation in the rear of the cabin, in the driver's central field of vision. The design is engineered to maintain adequate rigidity, stability, and image clarity, ensuring safe maneuvering and comfortable visibility behind the vehicle.

The component is designed for specific Mercedes body generations, maintaining the factory mirror alignment with the windshield and driver's seat. This provides the driver with a predictable field of view, consistent with the vehicle manufacturer's specifications.

Appearance, colors and integration with the interior

The mirror is finished in gray, which allows for harmonious integration with typical Mercedes headliner and upper cockpit finishes. The neutral shade facilitates matching with various upholstery options, creating a cohesive, visually uncluttered cockpit.

The mirror housing is designed to reduce glare and unwanted reflections without excessively obscuring the forward view. The shape and proportions are typical of the brand's factory-installed solutions, making it easier for drivers to adapt after replacing the part.

Condition, origin and assembly aspects

The mirror offered is an original, used Mercedes part, sourced from a dismantled vehicle. This type of component ensures compliance with factory quality standards while also offering a cost-effective alternative to new parts. The used nature of the product means signs of wear typical of this class of part, while maintaining the functionality required for continued use.

Due to its factory origins, the mirror is designed to be mounted on the original mounting point on the windshield or directly adjacent to it. In practice, this translates to:

• easier fit to existing holder or adapter,
• maintaining the correct position relative to the driver,
• Possibility of installation without interfering with the interior structure.

Benefits of using an original Mercedes mirror

Choosing an original interior mirror for your Mercedes brings a number of practical benefits in the daily use of your vehicle:

• Factory fit – maintaining the correct position and viewing angle, as designed by the manufacturer.
• Consistent interior aesthetics – the colors and form match the style of the Mercedes cockpit, without the effect of an “alien” element.
• Predictable optical behavior – a properly selected mirror surface promotes image readability and limits distortion.
• A reasonable cost-quality compromise – a used OEM part allows you to maintain high standards within a controlled budget.
