Hyundai i10 Roof Panel Replacement Parts

The i10 has run across three generations in the UK: the first generation ran from 2008 to 2013, the second generation from 2013 to 2019 (with a facelift around 2016), and the third generation from 2020 onwards. The roof panel is generation-specific, so a first-gen part will not cross to a second-gen car and vice versa. Always quote your exact year and registration to the breaker so they can confirm the correct generation.

Both a 2015 and a 2018 i10 fall within the second generation (2013–2019), but the 2016 facelift is a known boundary and pressing changes between pre- and post-facelift cars are something you must confirm with the breaker against your registration. In principle both cars share the same platform and body style, but whether the roof panel pressing itself changed at the facelift is not something to assume. Ask the breaker to check both donor and recipient registrations before agreeing the sale.

No — a 2019 i10 is second generation and a 2020 i10 is third generation, and these are entirely different body shells. The roof panel will not interchange across this generational boundary. Source a part from a confirmed third-generation (2020-onwards) donor car for your 2020 model.

Trim level does not affect roof panel fitment on the i10 — the same pressing is used across SE, SE Connect, Premium, and N Line grades within the same generation. You may find cosmetic differences such as a contrast-colour painted roof on some N Line or higher-spec cars, so check the colour code with the breaker if you want a straight swap without a respray. The structural panel itself should be the same across trims within a generation.

The i10 has been offered in both 3-door and 5-door hatchback body styles in the UK across its generations, and the roof panel does differ between them because the door aperture pressing and roof length are not identical. Always confirm the door count of the donor car with the breaker to make sure it matches your own vehicle. Quoting your registration makes this straightforward for the breaker to check.

Give the breaker your full registration number, which lets them confirm your exact generation, body style, and door count — the three things that matter most for roof panel fitment. Engine and trim level do not affect the panel itself, though trim level can affect paint finish so mention if your car has a contrasting roof colour. Getting the generation and body style right is essential, as panels from a different generation will not fit regardless of how close the years appear.
