Purpose and compatibility with Mercedes

The presented mirror cover housing has been designed specifically for the Mercedes A-Class W169 and Mercedes B-Class W245 models, taking into account the body geometry and factory mounting points. The placement on the vehicle is on the front left side, which ensures proper fitment with the mirror base, turn signal, and other components of the mirror assembly.

The original construction ensures:

• proper adhesion to the mirror body,
• stable mounting without additional modifications,
• preservation of factory gaps and body lines.

Color and paint finish

The item is finished in the Polar Silver Metallic – 761 shade, characteristic of the Mercedes paint palette. The metallic paint coating ensures consistency with the factory body paint, which facilitates visual matching when replacing a damaged mirror cover.

Thanks to this:

• you reduce the need for additional painting if the vehicle color matches,
• you maintain a uniform appearance of the side body section,
• you minimize the time required to restore the vehicle's aesthetics.

The mirror cover housing belongs to the Mirror components group, which means it is intended to work with the factory exterior mirror mechanism.

In practice, this means that:

• installation is based on factory clips and guides,
• there is no need to use non-factory adapters,
• the entire mirror assembly retains its original character and ergonomics.
