A used windscreen 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:
The SLK ran across three generations: the R170 (1996–2004), the R171 (2004–2011), and the R172 (2011–2016). Each generation has its own windscreen, so getting the right generation is the first thing to confirm with a breaker. Never assume a windscreen from one generation will cross over to another.
This spans the R171-to-R172 generation change, which happened in 2011, so a 2010 windscreen is R171 and a 2012 windscreen is R172 — these are different generations and the screens are not the same. You must source a windscreen that matches your car's generation, so check the registration with the breaker to confirm which platform applies before ordering.
No — engine or trim designation (200, 250, 350, AMG line and so on) does not affect which windscreen you need; fitment is determined by generation, not by which engine is under the bonnet. What does matter is whether your screen has a heating element or any camera and sensor brackets, so check those features on your existing screen before contacting a breaker.
Physically the glass may sit in the same aperture, but a heated windscreen has embedded elements that a standard screen lacks, so you would lose that functionality if you fitted an unheated replacement. For a like-for-like swap, tell the breaker specifically that your screen is heated so they can match it correctly.
If your car has a rain sensor or a camera bracket for an ADAS system, the replacement screen needs to have the same provisions, otherwise the sensor or camera may not refit or function correctly. Whether a specific used screen is fully compatible with the exact ADAS system fitted to your car is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as there can be variation even within a generation.
The R172 received a facelift in 2015, but windscreen fitment across the R172 range is primarily driven by whether your screen has heating elements or camera and sensor brackets rather than facelift versus pre-facelift status. That said, if your car is a 2015 or later R172, it is worth confirming with the breaker against your registration that the screen they have matches all the features of your original, just to be sure.
