Mercedes-Benz GLA Rear View Mirror Replacement Parts

The first-generation GLA (X156) ran from 2014 to 2019 and received a facelift around 2017, so a 2015 mirror and a 2018 mirror are both from the same generation but sit either side of that facelift boundary. Whether the mirror design changed with the facelift is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as interior trim details can shift at a facelift even within the same generation. Never assume fitment without the breaker verifying part numbers.

The second-generation GLA (H247) launched in 2020 and is a substantially different car from the first-generation X156 (2014–2019), with a redesigned interior, so the rear view mirrors are not interchangeable between the two generations. Always source a mirror specifically matched to your generation and confirm with the breaker using your registration plate.

For a standard rear view mirror, trim level typically does not affect basic fitment since the mirror mounts to the same windscreen position across the range. However, higher trims such as AMG Line may have a mirror with auto-dimming or a different finish compared to Sport or SE grades, so bear in mind the unit you receive may look slightly different even if it physically fits. Ask the breaker to confirm whether the mirror from their donor vehicle has the same features as yours.

No, the engine variant has no bearing on rear view mirror fitment — the mirror is an interior part matched by generation and trim, not by whether you have a diesel, petrol, or hybrid engine. Focus on getting the right generation (X156 for 2014–2019, H247 for 2020 onwards) and confirm any trim-level differences with the breaker.

Both years fall within the second-generation H247 GLA (2020 onwards), so they share the same basic platform and interior architecture, making a same-generation mirror a strong candidate. That said, you should always confirm with the breaker against your specific registration to account for any running production changes or optional equipment differences. No fitment can be guaranteed without the breaker verifying the part against your vehicle.

Give the breaker your full registration plate, which lets them look up your exact generation, model year, and trim level quickly. It also helps to tell them whether your current mirror has features like auto-dimming, a built-in camera, or a lane-departure warning sensor, as these affect compatibility and are more common on higher-spec trims such as AMG Line. Being specific upfront saves time and avoids ordering a mirror that physically fits but lacks the functionality you need.
