Fitment on a used roof panel varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
No — these are completely different generations: the W169 ran from 2004 to 2012, while the W176 ran from 2012 to 2018, and the two share no body structure whatsoever. The roof panels are entirely different pressings and will not interchange. You need to source a panel from within your own W176 generation.
Both years sit within the W176 generation (2012–2018), with a facelift arriving in 2015, so on paper the generation is the same — but whether the facelift brought any pressing changes to the roof panel is something you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before buying. Body style must also match: the W176 was offered as a 3-door and a 5-door hatchback, and the roof pressings differ between them. Give the breaker both registration numbers and let them verify the match.
Trim level makes no difference to roof panel fitment on the A-Class — SE, Sport, AMG Line and the rest all use the same pressed steel roof within a given generation and body style. You may find a panel from a higher-spec car carries a different panoramic-glass aperture or aerial boss arrangement, so flag any sunroof or aerial differences to the breaker so you get a like-for-like panel. The trim name alone is not a reason to reject or seek out a particular donor car.
No: the 3-door and 5-door W176 A-Class have different rooflines and the panels are not interchangeable. Always confirm the door count of the donor vehicle with the breaker before agreeing a price. Engine and trim are irrelevant here — door count is the critical detail.
No — whether your car is a petrol, diesel, or any other engine variant, it has no bearing on which roof panel fits. Fitment depends entirely on generation (W169 or W176), body style, and door count. Focus your conversation with the breaker on those three points rather than engine size or code.
Both sit within the same W176 generation (2012–2018), which is a strong starting point, but you should ask the breaker to check for any mid-generation pressing changes against your specific registration, as these cannot always be confirmed from year alone. Make sure door count matches — 3-door to 3-door or 5-door to 5-door — as these panels differ. Confirm both details with the breaker before purchasing.
