How to Remove the Rear Glass of the Mercedes GLA

Model: Mercedes Gla MK 1, W156 - Years 2013-2019
Part: Side window

To replace the rear glass of the Mercedes GLA, loosen the screws securing the door panel. These screws are located beneath the trim covering the armrest and inside the handle recess. Once removed, detach the panel to access the underlying components. By unscrewing the screws that secure the mechanism for raising the glass, you can free the glass by sliding it out from the top of the door. You can then insert the new glass by reassembling all previously removed parts.
