Used Ford Fiesta Headlight

The Ford Fiesta MK6 ran from 2002 to 2008, the MK7 from 2008 to 2017 (with a facelift in 2013), and the MK8 from 2017 to 2023. Headlights are generally shared across a generation up to the facelift boundary, so knowing which generation and whether your car is pre- or post-facelift is the key starting point when getting a quote from a breaker.

These two cars fall either side of the MK7 facelift in 2013, which is a known boundary where the front-end styling changed. Whether a specific headlight from a 2012 pre-facelift car will physically swap onto a 2015 post-facelift car is not something we can confirm as fact, so please check this directly with the breaker against your registration before buying.

Yes — within the same generation and facelift period, the headlights are shared across 3-door and 5-door body styles, as the front end is the same regardless of door count. Just make sure you match the correct NS (nearside, passenger) or OS (offside, driver) side and that both cars are from the same pre- or post-facelift period.

Trim level does not affect headlight fitment on the Fiesta — a Zetec, Titanium, or ST will share the same headlight housing within the same generation and facelift period. However, you may find cosmetic differences in finish or internal styling between units sourced from different trim levels, so it's worth asking the breaker what trim the headlight came from if appearance matters to you.

Within the MK8 generation you should confirm whether your car has halogen or LED headlights, as these are different units that are not interchangeable. The breaker will need your registration to check this, so we'd recommend confirming the exact variant with them before agreeing a purchase.

A 2009 Fiesta sits in the pre-facelift MK7 period (2008–2013), so a headlight from another pre-facelift MK7 should correspond to the same generation and body front-end — but always confirm NS or OS with the breaker and give them your registration to verify the exact match before buying.
