A used wing mirror that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
Yes, generation is the key fitment factor: the first-generation CLA (C117) ran from 2013 to 2019, with a facelift in 2016, and the second-generation CLA (C118) launched in 2019. A mirror from a pre-2019 C117 will not be a straight swap onto a post-2019 C118, so always confirm the generation with the breaker against your registration number.
Both years fall within the first-generation CLA (C117), though 2015 is pre-facelift and 2017 is post-facelift (the facelift arrived in 2016). The shell and mounting are generally the same generation, but whether the facelift brought any changes to the mirror housing or fixings is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration before buying.
Yes, absolutely – nearside (NS, passenger/left) and offside (OS, driver/right) mirrors are completely different parts and are not interchangeable. Always specify the correct side when requesting a quote, using NS or OS, as UK breakers will use those terms.
Trim level does not affect the physical fitment of the mirror frame or housing, so an AMG Line mirror will mount the same way as an SE mirror on the same generation CLA. However, higher trims may have had additional features such as folding, heating, or an indicator repeater built in – whether those features match your original is something to confirm with the breaker, as fitment and features are separate questions.
Colour is not a fitment issue – a mirror in the wrong colour can be resprayed to match your car, so don't let colour put you off an otherwise correct part. Focus on getting the right generation, the right side (NS or OS), and confirming any built-in features with the breaker.
Yes – while generation and side (NS/OS) determine whether the mirror physically fits, the CLA was available with various feature combinations including folding, heating, indicators, and blind-spot cameras depending on specification. The breaker will need to check the features of their part against your car's original setup, so have your registration to hand when you contact them.
