Mercedes Sprinter SL101 Installation Overview

Installation of the SL101 driver-side forward windows requires removal of a portion of the inner stamped sheet metal on compatible Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans.

This installation overview applies to:

  • SL101-AW – Premium Awning Window
  • SL101-CA – Crank-Out Awning Window
  • SL101-DS – Double-Sliding Window
  • SL101-F – Fixed Glass Window
  • SL101-SE – SE-Series Sliding Window
  • SL101-SER – Rear-Opening Sliding Window
  • 2007–2026 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
  • Driver Side Forward Position

The general process is:

  1. Identify and carefully cut the required inner sheet metal from inside the van when possible.
  2. File and deburr the cut edges to remove any sharp or raised areas.
  3. Prime or protect all freshly exposed steel.
  4. Install Trim-Lok edge molding over the finished sheet-metal edge.
  5. Clean all metal debris from the wall cavity.
  6. Dry-fit the actual SL101 window and verify complete clearance before applying automotive urethane.
  7. Urethane-bond the window in place and allow the adhesive to fully cure.

Important: Always verify the actual Sprinter configuration, wheelbase, and exact SL101 window before cutting. The illustrated cut area is for reference only and is not an exact cutting template.

    The Perfect Window for my Camper Van

    I was planning to put universal awning windows in my Sprinter, so I called Van Windows Direct to ask for advice. When I explained my idea, they told me about a new window they had, and it sounded perfect. I wanted a smaller window because my wife and I just needed some light and ventilation, but I didn’t like the large windows. This new window was exactly what I needed. The viewable area is smaller than the large windows its more like a big bunk window, and it fit perfectly. Installation was much easier than a universal window. I highly recommend it!
