Second Hand Hyundai Getz Bonnet Latch

The Hyundai Getz ran from 2002 to 2009 with a facelift introduced in 2005, which brought changes to the front end including the grille and bumper styling. The bonnet latch itself sits behind the grille and its mounting points could differ across that facelift boundary, so while latches from within the same pre-facelift (2002–2005) or post-facelift (2005–2009) period are more likely to interchange, you should confirm with the breaker whether the latch from a specific donor year matches your registration before buying.

Yes — the bonnet latch is a front-end mechanical component and is shared across body styles within the same generation, so the number of doors on the donor car makes no difference to fitment. What matters is whether the donor car falls within the same facelift period as yours, so check that with the breaker rather than worrying about whether the car it came from was a 3-door or 5-door.

Trim level does not affect bonnet latch fitment on the Getz — a latch from a base-grade car will fit the same as one from a higher-spec CDX or GSi, as the latch is a functional mechanical part shared across the range. You may find minor cosmetic differences in the cable or release handle inside the cabin depending on spec, but the latch mechanism at the bonnet itself is the same, so don't filter your search by trim.

No — engine size and fuel type have no bearing on bonnet latch fitment for the Getz. Whether the donor car had a 1.1, 1.3, 1.4, or 1.6 petrol engine, or the 1.5 CRDi diesel, the bonnet latch is the same part, so you don't need to match the engine when searching.

Your 2003 Getz is a pre-facelift car, while a 2007 example is post-facelift (the facelift arrived in 2005), meaning the front-end design changed between those two build dates. The bonnet latch could differ at that boundary, so confirm with the breaker that the part from a 2007 donor is compatible with your specific pre-facelift registration before purchasing.

On Findapart, breakers will quote based on your vehicle's details, so have your registration number ready as it confirms the exact build date and facelift period, which are the key factors for this part. Let the breaker know your car's year of manufacture and mention whether your bonnet release cable and latch are being replaced together, as some may supply them as an assembly — confirming compatibility against your reg is the most reliable way to ensure the right part is sourced.
