Second Hand Fiat Scudo Rear Tailgate

The Fiat Scudo runs across two main generations: the first generation from 1995 to 2006, and the second generation from 2007 onwards (the platform shared with the Citroën Dispatch and Peugeot Expert of that era). Tailgates are not interchangeable between these generations as the bodywork is completely different. Always confirm the exact generation with your breaker against your registration plate.

These two vehicles sit in different generations — the 2005 model is first generation (1995–2006) and the 2009 model is second generation (2007 onwards) — so the tailgates are not the same and will not interchange. The body pressings and apertures changed completely between generations. Source a tailgate from the correct generation and confirm with your breaker using your reg.

Yes, for a van like the Scudo these factors are critical — short wheelbase and long wheelbase variants can share the same rear aperture, but high-roof and standard-roof body styles have different tailgate heights and will not interchange. Always tell your breaker your exact wheelbase and roof height variant, not just the year. Confirming against your registration is the safest approach.

Absolutely — barn doors (the twin side-hinged doors) and a single top-hinged tailgate are completely different assemblies and are not interchangeable in any way. Make sure you confirm to your breaker exactly which configuration your van has before they quote you. Getting this wrong means the part will be entirely unusable.

Trim level does not affect the fitment of the rear tailgate on the Scudo — the aperture and hinge points are the same across trim grades within the same generation, wheelbase, and roof height. You may find cosmetic differences such as badging, glass tint, or wiper configurations between vehicles depending on spec, so mention these to your breaker so they can match as closely as possible. Fitment itself will not be an issue based on trim alone.

The second-generation Scudo (2007 onwards) shares its platform with the Citroën Dispatch and Peugeot Expert of the same era, so there is a reasonable chance of interchange, but panel pressing differences between these badge-engineered variants do exist and cannot be confirmed without checking. Do not assume a Dispatch or Expert tailgate will be a direct fit — confirm with your breaker by providing your registration and asking them to verify the part against your specific vehicle.
