Used headlights vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The Audi 80 B4 ran from 1991 to 1996 and all B4 models share the same front-end design throughout that run, so a headlight from any B4 year should be a direct match for another B4 regardless of the model year. However, whether you have a halogen or a different headlight variant fitted could affect whether a specific unit is a straight swap, so confirm the exact specification against your registration with the breaker before buying.
The B3 (1986–1991) and the B4 (1991–1996) are different generations with different front-end designs, so B3 and B4 headlights are not the same part. Stick to sourcing a headlight from the correct generation for your car, and quote your registration to the breaker so they can confirm the right unit.
This question straddles the B3-to-B4 generation change, which occurred in 1991, so a 1989 car is a B3 and a 1991 car could be either a late B3 or an early B4 depending on the exact build date. Because the B3 and B4 use different front ends, you should confirm which generation your specific registration falls into with the breaker before ordering, as the two headlights are not interchangeable across that boundary.
No — headlights are part of the front-end structure, which is shared across body styles within the same generation, so the Avant estate, saloon, and the related Cabriolet all use the same B3 or B4 headlight as appropriate. Just match the generation to your car and you can safely ignore body style when searching.
Trim level — whether your car is a base 80, an SE, or a Sport — does not affect headlight fitment within the same generation, as the front-end design is identical across the range. Bear in mind that some higher-specification cars may have had different light units fitted from the factory (such as different beam types), so ask the breaker to verify the exact specification matches yours before purchasing.
It's risky without knowing the generation, because B3 and B4 headlights differ and fitting the wrong one will mean it simply won't locate correctly. Ask the breaker to confirm the generation against your registration before committing, and if they can't verify it, it's safer to look elsewhere.
Fitment guidance is general and mistakes can happen - vehicle specifications vary and manufacturers make mid-production changes. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the supplying breaker before buying.
