Purpose and function of the quarter side window
The presented window is dedicated to the rear right side of the Audi A4 B7 generation convertible body. This component is responsible for illuminating the rear cabin area, maintaining the lateral structural rigidity, and ensuring the correct alignment of the roof line and side paneling. Thanks to its factory profile, the window works seamlessly with seals, lifting mechanisms, and upholstery elements, which facilitates installation and reduces the risk of leaks.
Original origin and fitment
The window comes from the original Audi production line, which means it maintains the parameters specified by the vehicle manufacturer. This includes, among other things, the appropriate glass thickness, the correct bending radius, and compatibility with factory mounts. An original part helps avoid problems typical of aftermarket replacements, such as inaccurate fitment, adjustment difficulties, or accelerated seal wear.
Choosing a used OEM component is particularly beneficial for repairs where maintaining the visual consistency of the car and proper interaction with existing body components is essential. As a result, this quarter side window represents a reasonable compromise between quality and repair cost.
Technical characteristics and installation
The element has been designed to operate in the rear right section of the body, which determines its shape, mounting method, and interaction with opening mechanisms and guides. The AS2 glass construction ensures the appropriate level of light transmission and compliance with homologation requirements for side windows in passenger vehicles.
During installation, it is worth paying attention to:
- correct positioning of the window in the guides and body frame,
- the condition of seals and trim strips,
- thorough cleaning of the contact surface with the body before installation.
Such an approach minimizes the risk of rattles, leaks, or improper operation of the lifting mechanisms.
Why choose a used OEM window
For components such as side windows, using a used original part is often the most rational solution. You receive a component with a factory fit without having to incur the costs of purchasing a new item. Additionally, using reclaimed parts aligns with an approach that reduces waste and supports the reuse of materials.

Application in Audi service and restoration
The rear right quarter side window will prove useful both in standard body and paint repairs and in restoration projects for Audi A4 B7 convertibles. Thanks to its original geometry, it facilitates the restoration of the factory body line after a collision or replacement of body panels. This is particularly important in convertibles, where the precision of window fitment affects acoustic comfort and protection of the interior against weather conditions.
If you are planning further expansion or repairs within the body and glazing, it is worth browsing other products in the original Audi components selected by OEM numbers category to maintain the consistency of the parts used throughout the vehicle.
