Purpose and fitment for BMW 3 E46 Sedan

The presented window is dedicated to the rear right section of the BMW 3 Series E46 generation sedan body. The fixed side window construction ensures stable seating in the door frame and proper compatibility with seals and other body components. Factory origin from the BMW group means the original geometry is maintained, which facilitates installation and minimizes the risk of leaks or improper fitment with the bodywork.

Glass characteristics and color

The window is made of automotive glass in a green tint, used as standard in many BMW E46 units. This color helps reduce interior heating and improves visual comfort for passengers, while maintaining a consistent appearance with the vehicle's other windows. Uniform glass color is important for both aesthetic and practical reasons – especially when partially replacing glazing on one side of the car.

Body function and service application

The rear right fixed side window plays an important role in stiffening the door structure and protecting the interior from external factors. Replacing this component is recommended in the event of cracks, scratches that limit visibility, or damage caused by a collision. The product is suitable for both body and paint repairs as well as for completing the bodywork in BMW 3 E46 Sedan restoration projects.

Condition and benefits of choosing a used part

The window comes from the used parts segment, which allows for economical repair while maintaining the original origin of the component. In many cases, choosing such a solution allows for visual matching with the remaining windows in the car, which are also not new. Original BMW glass also means predictable material behavior during use and compliance with factory assembly standards.
