The Mercedes-Benz B-Class W246 generation ran from 2011 to 2018, with a facelift in 2014, so a 2012 and a 2016 car are both W246 but sit either side of that facelift boundary. The facelift can bring interior trim and dashboard changes that may affect whether the glove box fits or clips in correctly, so confirm with the breaker against both registrations before buying. Same-side-of-the-facelift sourcing is generally the safer bet.
Yes, all generations of the Mercedes-Benz B-Class — including the W245 (2005–2011) and the W246 (2011–2018) — were fitted with a glove box on the passenger side of the dashboard as standard. It is a straightforward interior part present across the range, so used examples are widely available from UK breakers.
No — the W245 (2005–2011) and the W246 (2011–2018) are entirely different generations with different dashboard structures, so their glove boxes are not interchangeable. You need to source a glove box that matches your specific generation, and confirm the part against your registration with the breaker.
Trim level can affect interior finish and detailing, so a glove box from an AMG Line car may look slightly different to one from an SE or Sport, for example due to different material finishes or stitching. The fundamental fitment to the dashboard is generation-specific rather than trim-specific, but if you want a cosmetically correct match, it is worth telling the breaker which trim your car is so they can source accordingly.
No — engine choice has no bearing on glove box fitment whatsoever, as it is a pure interior part tied to the dashboard design of a given generation. Whether you have a diesel, petrol, or electric B-Class, what matters is the generation (W245 or W246) and any facelift differences within that generation.
Both cars share the W246 generation (2011–2018), with the facelift occurring in 2014, but interior updates at the facelift point can mean trim panels and fixings differ between pre- and post-facelift cars. Whether the glove box crosses that 2014 boundary is something you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations rather than assume it will simply swap over.
