Ford Transit Connect Rear View Mirror Replacement Parts

The Ford Transit Connect has two main generations: the Mk1 (2002–2013) and the Mk2 (2013 onwards, with a facelift around 2018), and the interior mirror mounting and windscreen fixings differ between these generations, so a Mk1 mirror will not cross to a Mk2 and vice versa. Within the same generation, mirrors are generally interchangeable, but if your vehicle sits near the 2013 changeover or the 2018 facelift boundary, confirm the exact generation with the breaker against your registration before buying.

For the interior rear view mirror, trim level makes very little practical difference — the basic mirror fitting and glass are the same across variants like Base, Trend, Limited, and Sport within the same generation. You may find minor cosmetic differences such as a different housing colour or finish, but these do not affect fitment, so any same-generation mirror should physically fit your van.

Both a 2013 and a 2015 Transit Connect fall within the Mk2 generation, so the mirror should be compatible in terms of mounting and fitment. That said, 2013 was the first year of the Mk2, and very early build vehicles can sometimes have minor differences from later production, so it is worth asking the breaker to confirm against your specific registration to be sure.

The interior rear view mirror is not affected by door count — it mounts to the windscreen or headlining in the same way regardless of whether your Transit Connect is a short wheelbase or long wheelbase variant. You only need to match the generation, so door configuration is not something you need to worry about when sourcing this part.

If your van is a Mk1 (2002–2013) you should source a Mk1 mirror, and if it is a Mk2 (2013 onwards) you need a Mk2 item — the generations are not interchangeable for this part. Either generation's mirror can be a perfectly good used part from a breaker, so the key is simply matching the generation to your vehicle rather than favouring one over the other.

The most important thing to tell a breaker is the generation of your van — Mk1 (2002–2013) or Mk2 (2013 onwards) — and your registration number so they can verify this precisely, especially if you are near a generation or facelift boundary. Trim level and engine are not significant factors for this part, so you do not need to worry about those when making your enquiry.
