Purpose and function of the side window

The presented window has been designed as a component mounted in the rear, right part of the body, in the passenger door area. It is responsible for proper side visibility, protecting the interior from external factors, and ensuring the structural stability of the door.

The AS3 marking indicates a specific type of automotive glass homologation, used in the automotive industry for windows with special performance parameters. Thanks to this, the component meets safety requirements and can be used as a replacement for the factory element in the Mercedes W163.

Performance parameters and color

The black side window is visually matched to the body styling of Mercedes W163 vehicles, ensuring a consistent look for the side profile. The appropriately selected color helps reduce interior heating and improves the comfort of passengers sitting in the back.

Its placement in the rear, right part of the vehicle means that this element is important for both passive safety and daily convenience – a properly selected window guarantees correct door closing, tightness, and proper cooperation with seals and the lifting mechanism.

Benefits of using an original Mercedes window

Choosing an original side window for the Mercedes W163 allows you to maintain the factory fit to the door frame and compatibility with other body elements. This is particularly important when replacing after a collision, mechanical damage, or glass breakage.

• precise fit to the rear right part of the body,
• maintenance of proper door geometry and tightness,
• consistent color with the vehicle's other windows,
• compatibility with factory seals and guides.

The element comes from a used vehicle, which is a cost-effective solution while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications.

Application in service and body repairs

The rear right side window will prove useful both in professional body and paint shops and in workshops specializing in Mercedes vehicle body repairs. It can be used when replacing a single element after damage or during a broader renovation of the side body section.

In workshop practice, it is important that the window is compatible with the door construction and body type – using a dedicated component for the W163 series minimizes the risk of installation problems and shortens repair time.

Choosing a used window and repair cost-effectiveness

When choosing a used glass element for a Mercedes, it is worth paying attention to the cost-to-quality ratio and compliance with the vehicle's original specifications. A used side window can be a reasonable compromise between price and maintaining factory body parameters.
