Mercedes Benz C-Class Windshield Replacement Service

Understanding the Auto Glass Specifications of Your Benz C Class

Have you ever wondered how the auto glass of your Mercedes C-Class is made? Well, you’re in luck! The car glass that makes up the different sections of the C-Class is either made out of tempered or laminated auto glass. But what’s the difference between the two?

Tempered glass is the more brittle form of glass, but it’s still more robust than your standard glass. To produce it, a sheet of glass is put in an oven and heated to over 1112 Fahrenheit; then, it’s rapidly cooled down with water.

This type of auto glass shatters into small, relatively harmless pieces when broken, making it a great choice for vehicle side and rear windows. However, it can’t be repaired as it does not crack and has to be replaced when damaged.

On the other hand, laminated glass is much more durable. It’s manufactured by combining two or more layers of glass with a vinyl-type plastic in between, which is then exposed to extreme temperatures to bond everything together.

This kind of glass is used for windshields so that any impact won’t send shards flying toward the driver and passengers. The great thing about this type of glass is that it can be repaired if only minor damage is present, which can help save money compared to a complete replacement.

Standard windshield features of a C Class model

Replacing the windshield on your Mercedes Benz C-Class depends on what features your specific model has installed.

For instance, two black triangles near the rearview mirror indicate the presence of a Mono Camera, which uses the lenses to project the image of the surrounding area onto the display as a part of your car’s Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

The Rain Sensor, mounted behind the rearview mirror, uses light sensors to detect rainfall levels and adjust the wiper speed accordingly.

Older models can have a tinted grey or green Sun Strip to help protect the driver and passengers from the sun’s UV rays.

Some C-class windshields also have an extra vinyl layer to reduce noise (Noise Reduction) for a peaceful cabin environment. Finally, the Built-in Antenna provided stability and improved signal-receiving capabilities, though requiring more costly replacements.

Let’s look at some of the basics that impact the total price of a new windshield, starting with the year of production, the number of doors, and the style.

It’s easy to see why the price of a windshield replacement for a first-generation Mercedes C-Class model from 1993 can be much lower than the newest model. Older models typically come with fewer basic features and require fewer manufacturing parts and expertise for installation. In contrast, it can be quite different compared to a fully equipped model with Lane Keeping Assist and Heads-Up Display.

Regarding the style of the Mercedes C-Class, several options have been available since 2001. The Station Wagon is great for families, offering practical features and plenty of room, but without the flashy extras. On average, a new windshield with all features included will cost $970.25.

The Sedan version is sleek, stylish, and popular on the roads. It’s a great choice for those that want an elegant car with all the features. Again, the replacement cost with all features included can be up to $1329.69.

Finally, the Coupe is the top-of-the-range option, is bigger than the Sedan and has all the luxury lines that make Mercedes desirable. Of course, this comes with the highest price tag, with windshield replacements costing, on average, $1460.85
