Used Hyundai i20 Door Handle

The Hyundai i20 first generation ran from 2008 to 2014, so a 2010 and a 2014 are both within the same generation and the handles are likely to correspond — but confirm with the breaker against your registration, as there were mid-life updates that may have affected external trim fitment. Make sure you match the side (NS for passenger/left, OS for driver/right) and whether your car is a 3-door or 5-door, as front door handles differ between body styles. Never assume without the breaker confirming on your specific reg.

The first-generation Hyundai i20 covers 2008 to 2014, and the second generation runs from 2014 onwards, so these are different body shells and the door handles are not the same. Parts from across that 2014 generation boundary are very unlikely to interchange, and you should confirm this firmly with the breaker quoting against your registration. Stick to sourcing from within your own generation to avoid a wasted purchase.

For door handles, trim level does not affect fitment — a Classic, SE, or Premium grade i20 of the same generation, body style, and door count will share the same door handle frame. The only practical difference you might notice is that a handle from a different trim could be a different colour or finish, but this is cosmetic and can be resprayed or colour-matched. Confirm the generation, 3-door or 5-door, and NS or OS side with your breaker, and trim level need not be a concern.

Yes, this matters — the front door on a 3-door i20 is a longer door than on a 5-door, so the handle and its mounting points differ between body styles. Always tell your breaker whether your car is a 3-door or 5-door, as well as which side you need (NS for nearside/passenger, OS for offside/driver). Quoting your registration to the breaker is the safest way to ensure they pull the correct handle.

Both of these years fall within the second-generation i20, which launched in 2014, so there is a reasonable chance of compatibility — however, you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations, as facelifts or running changes within a generation can affect handle design. As always, match the side (NS or OS) and confirm the door count (3-door or 5-door) matches your car. The breaker quoting on your specific reg is the most reliable check before purchase.

Colour is not a fitment issue — a door handle from any colour of i20 of the correct generation, body style, and side will fit your car mechanically. You may want to factor in colour when choosing, as a close match reduces respraying work, but this is purely cosmetic. Focus your search on generation, NS or OS side, and 3-door or 5-door body style, and let your breaker confirm compatibility against your registration.
