No — the Hyundai i10 (all generations) uses a rack-and-pinion steering system, not a steering box. A steering box is a recirculating-ball or worm-and-sector unit typically found on older or larger vehicles, and was never fitted to any variant of the i10. What you are almost certainly looking for is a steering rack, which is the correct term for the i10's steering gear assembly.
The part you need is a steering rack (sometimes listed as a steering rack and pinion, or power steering rack if your car has hydraulic or electric power assistance). All generations of the i10 — the first-generation (2008–2013), second-generation (2013–2019), and third-generation (2019-onwards) — use a rack-and-pinion setup throughout. Search for 'Hyundai i10 steering rack' on Findapart and breakers will be able to quote you the correct unit for your registration.
There would be no practical reason to do this, and it is not something any reputable breaker or mechanic would recommend. The i10's steering column, subframe, and geometry are all designed around a rack-and-pinion unit, so a steering box would be fundamentally incompatible. Stick to sourcing the correct steering rack for your generation of i10.
Yes, this does happen — some private sellers and even occasional trade listings use 'steering box' loosely to describe a steering rack, particularly on older listings or from sellers less familiar with the correct terminology. If you see such a listing claiming to fit an i10, ask the seller to confirm it is a rack-and-pinion unit and check it against your registration before purchasing. Reputable dismantlers on Findapart will list the part correctly as a steering rack.
