Fitment on a used headlight 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:
The GLB is a single generation (X247), launched in 2019 and still in production, so all GLB headlights come from this same platform. A facelift was introduced for the 2023 model year, bringing revised front-end styling including updated headlights. Within the pre-facelift range (2019–2022) headlights are generally interchangeable, and within the facelifted range (2023 onwards) the same applies, but confirm exact fitment with the breaker against your registration.
Yes, both the 2020 and 2021 GLB sit within the same pre-facelift X247 generation (2019–2022), so the front-end panels are shared across those years. NS and OS fitment still needs to match, so make sure you're buying the correct side. Always confirm against your registration with the breaker before purchasing.
The 2022 GLB is pre-facelift and the 2023 GLB is the facelifted model, so these sit either side of the key facelift boundary and the headlight designs are different. Whether any specific part crosses that boundary is something you'll need to confirm with the breaker against your registration, as interchange across a facelift is not guaranteed. Don't assume compatibility just because both cars share the X247 platform.
Trim level does not affect headlight fitment on the GLB — the front-end structure is shared across SE, Sport, and AMG Line grades within the same generation. You may find cosmetic differences such as chrome or gloss-black surrounds depending on trim, so check the appearance of the unit the breaker is selling matches your existing light. What matters is whether your car is pre-facelift (2019–2022) or facelifted (2023 onwards), not which trim you have.
Yes — give the breaker your full registration so they can confirm the exact build date and specification, which matters particularly if your car is near the 2023 facelift boundary. You should also clarify whether your headlight is halogen or LED/multibeam, as different lighting variants exist within the same generation and these are not directly interchangeable. Specifying NS (nearside, passenger) or OS (offside, driver) is also essential.
No — the GLB (X247), GLA (H247) and GLC are distinct models built on different platforms, and their front-end panels including headlights are not shared. Always search specifically for GLB X247 headlights rather than assuming crossover from other Mercedes SUVs. A good breaker will check your registration to make sure the part they're supplying came from the correct model.
