Cheap Hyundai Ioniq 5 Curtain Airbag

Yes, curtain airbags are fitted to the Hyundai Ioniq 5 as standard across the range — they run along the roofline above the side windows to protect occupants' heads in a side impact. The Ioniq 5 is a five-door model and curtain airbags are present on all variants regardless of drivetrain (RWD or AWD) or battery size, so you are looking for the right part. Make sure you specify the correct side — nearside (NS, left) or offside (OS, right) — when requesting a quote from a breaker.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 first generation covers the 2021 launch through to the facelift, which arrived in the UK for the 2024 model year, bringing notable interior and exterior updates. A curtain airbag from a pre-facelift car (2021–2023) and a post-facelift car (2024 onwards) sit within what could be different trim and SRS system configurations, so fitment across that boundary is not guaranteed. Always confirm airbag module compatibility with the breaker against your exact registration number before purchasing, and have the part fitted by a qualified technician.

The Ioniq 5 was sold in the UK in trims including Premium, Premium SE, Ultimate, and (post-facelift) variants such as Project 45 Edition — but curtain airbag fitment is not typically driven by trim level on this model, as the airbags protect all occupants regardless of specification. That said, interior trim and headlining finishing details can differ by trim, so the airbag unit itself should be compatible but surrounding trim pieces may look slightly different from your original. Confirm part numbers with the breaker against your registration to be certain.

Curtain airbags are safety-critical components — they are single-use devices and, once deployed, must be replaced with a fully intact unit that has never fired. Fitting should always be carried out by a qualified automotive technician with experience in SRS (supplemental restraint systems), as incorrect installation can prevent deployment in a real accident or cause accidental deployment during fitting. A breaker can supply the part, but professional fitting is strongly recommended.

When contacting a breaker on Findapart, give them your full registration number so they can cross-reference the donor vehicle's generation, model year, and SRS system against yours — this is particularly important for airbags, where module compatibility with your car's specific SRS control unit must be confirmed. Also specify which side you need (NS or OS) and whether your car is a pre-facelift (2021–2023) or facelift (2024 on) model. Never assume a part will fit based on year alone; always get the breaker to verify against your reg.
