The Mercedes W223 catalog distinguishes right-hand-drive replacement mirror covers from right-hand-drive overlay covers. Select the actual housing and structure before quoting a pair. Item 9 has a broader mirror description, while items 10 and 11 explicitly name the RHD alternatives. Do not let that broad entry become an unsupported claim that one part fits every W223 mirror configuration.

W223 RHD: choose overlay or replacement after confirming the car
A customer in a right-hand-drive market may own an imported left-hand-drive vehicle. Keep the car’s actual configuration separate from its shipping destination.
| Configuration and requirement | Catalog route | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Confirmed RHD, existing cover retained | Item 11 overlay candidate | Check its mating surface; do not substitute item 10. |
| Confirmed RHD, cover replaced | Item 10 replacement candidate | Check inner attachments and retained mirror components. |
| LHD or unknown configuration | Item 9 only as an inquiry starting point | Its broad name does not prove an LHD or universal application. |
- Record steering position from the customer’s vehicle details before allocating a stock variant.
- Ask whether the supplier is quoting caps, a housing or a complete mirror assembly. Keep glass and electronics out of a cap-only promise.
- For a mixed-market order, create one line per confirmed configuration and structure, even if every line uses the same carbon finish.
The buyer can separate two RHD structures without turning a destination country into a fitment rule. The unresolved broad entry remains a separate application inquiry.
Mercedes W223 mirror caps: application boundaries
For an overseas buyer, steering position should be a written field, not a country-based guess. Capture both mirror housings and any relevant equipment areas. Match the selected row to a written product reference and left/right quantity. The actual structure then drives the workshop’s review of removal, preparation and product-specific installation requirements.
Illustrative workshop decision
Example: a reseller receives a W223 inquiry from a customer in a predominantly right-hand-drive market, but the car itself is an imported left-hand-drive vehicle. A shipping address cannot resolve the application. Ask for the actual steering position and housing photographs, then select the supported reference instead of relying on the market assumption.
W223 RHD overlay request: example inquiry
Example inquiry — W223 RHD overlay request
Reference: W223 catalog, page 2, item 11.
Requested scope: RHD overlay reference; replacement item 10 is a separate alternative.
Add the actual vehicle details, quantity per selected line and delivery destination. The reference and scope above are an inquiry example, not an accepted order.
When supplying a pair, review both sides in the contents photo. A single attractive cover image is useful for appearance but does not establish the complete paired order.
Mercedes W223 mirror caps: buyer questions
Does replacement cover include the mirror motor and glass?
Not from this description. Ask the supplier to identify every supplied component.
Can I assume steering position from the destination country?
No. Record the actual vehicle configuration.
Is an overlay interchangeable with a replacement cover?
They are different structures and should be quoted and described separately.
