Purpose and fitment for BMW

The presented window has been designed specifically for the BMW E61 body style and is installed in the rear right area of the vehicle. The precise edge profiling and correct bending radius guarantee proper adhesion to the seals and door frame, which translates into reduced noise, correct aerodynamics, and stable guidance of the window in the tracks.

The AS2 marking indicates the use of glass with parameters compliant with the requirements for side windows, ensuring appropriate light transmission and resistance to mechanical damage. As a result, the window meets the required safety and comfort standards for daily use.

Glass characteristics and color

The window is made of tempered glass with a green tint, which is characteristic of many factory BMW glazing units. This type of tinting helps reduce interior heating, improving driving comfort on sunny days and supporting the air conditioning system. At the same time, good visibility and clarity of the surroundings are maintained, which is important for the safety of the driver and passengers.

The tempered structure of the glass provides increased resistance to stress and a controlled breaking pattern in the event of damage, which minimizes the risk of large, sharp shards. This is a standard solution used in modern premium cars, such as BMW.

Condition, functionality, and installation benefits

The item comes from a used vehicle, which allows for a cost-effective restoration of the original body configuration. A used side window is a good choice for accident repairs, replacement after mechanical damage, or vehicle restoration when maintaining the factory character of the car is a priority.

The main advantages of using an original side window for the BMW E61 include:

• factory fitment to the door frame and tracks,
• preservation of the original body line and glazing aesthetics,
• compatibility with the existing window lifting mechanism,
• consistent color matching with the vehicle's other windows.

Application area and glazing system expansion

The window is installed in the rear right part of the body, affecting acoustic comfort, protection of the interior against external factors, and the overall rigidity of the side body zone. Replacing a damaged window with an original element from the same model series allows you to avoid problems with leaks, mechanism jamming, or differences in glass shade.

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the side glazing area in your BMW and need other elements from the same group, such as front door windows, rear door windows, or additional side glazing, check the available parts in the BMW car windows category.

Technical knowledge and operation

When replacing side windows, it is worth paying attention to the condition of the seals, tracks, and the lifting mechanism to avoid further interventions in the near future. High temperatures and intense sunlight affect not only the glass but also the cooling system components and the overall condition of the vehicle – you can find more practical tips in the guide Summer heat vs. cooling system: used radiators and fans as a guarantee of savings.
