Ford Transit Custom Rear View Mirror Replacement Parts

Yes, all Ford Transit Custom vans are fitted with an interior rear view mirror as standard, mounted on the windscreen. However, it is worth noting that because the Transit Custom is a panel van with no rear windows in the load area, the mirror has very limited rearward visibility in standard form — many owners replace it with a wide-angle or camera-linked mirror for practical use. You are looking for the correct part regardless, and a used mirror from a breaker is a straightforward find.

The Ford Transit Custom Mk1 ran from 2012 through to around 2023, with a significant facelift arriving in 2018, so a 2014 mirror and a 2019 mirror come from either side of that facelift boundary. The windscreen mounting point and glass shape changed at the facelift, so direct interchange is not guaranteed and you should confirm with the breaker whether the specific mirror from their vehicle matches your post-2018 registration before buying.

For the interior rear view mirror, trim level generally does not affect the basic fitment or mounting, as the windscreen bracket and mirror body are consistent across Transit Custom trim grades including Base, Trend, Limited, and Sport. You may notice minor cosmetic differences such as housing colour or finish between grades, so mention your trim to the breaker if you want the closest visual match. Fitment itself should not be the concern here, but always confirm the part number with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

No, the wheelbase variant does not affect the rear view mirror, as the mirror mounts to the windscreen and its fitment is determined by the generation and any facelift changes rather than the length of the vehicle. Whether you have the SWB or LWB Transit Custom, you should be looking for a mirror from the same generation — pre-facelift 2012 to 2018, or post-facelift 2018 onward. Confirm the part with your breaker using your registration to be certain.

Both a 2016 and a 2017 Ford Transit Custom fall within the pre-facelift Mk1 generation (2012–2018), so these should be from the same design phase and a mirror from either year is likely to be compatible. That said, minor running changes can occur within a generation, so it is always worth asking the breaker to cross-reference the part number against your registration before committing to a purchase.

The double cab-in-van variant of the Transit Custom, which has a second row of seats and rear side windows, uses the same windscreen and mirror mounting as the standard panel van, so the mirror itself is sourced the same way by generation. The rear glazing does mean the mirror is actually more useful in this body style, but it does not change which mirror you need. Match by generation — pre-facelift 2012–2018 or post-facelift 2018 onward — and confirm with the breaker using your registration.
