A used rear light that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
The Mazda 6 ran as the second generation (GH) from roughly 2008 to 2012, then the third generation (GJ) from 2013 onwards, so a 2010 unit comes from a completely different platform to a 2015 car and will not fit. You need to source a GJ-generation light from 2013 onwards for a 2015 car. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker.
Yes, body style is the single most important fitment factor for rear lights — the Mazda 6 GJ (2013 onwards) was sold in the UK as a saloon and an estate (Tourer), and the rear lamp clusters are completely different between the two. Tell the breaker your body style clearly alongside your year. Never assume a saloon light will cross over to a Tourer or vice versa.
The GJ Mazda 6 received a facelift in 2015, and while both sit on the same platform, the rear light design changed at that point, so a pre-2015 unit may not match a post-2015 car correctly. Name the boundary — pre-facelift 2013–2015 versus post-facelift 2015 onwards — when speaking to the breaker, and ask them to verify interchange using your registration before you buy. Do not assume fitment across that facelift year.
Trim level does not affect rear light fitment on the Mazda 6 — the same lamp cluster is used across SE, SE-L, Sport Nav, and GT Sport grades on equivalent body styles and generations. You may find minor cosmetic differences such as chrome detailing depending on where the breaker's donor car sat in the range, but the fitting and connections will be the same. Body style and generation are the details that matter, not the trim badge.
Yes, NS (nearside, left-hand side as you sit in the car) and OS (offside, right-hand side) rear lights are handed and not interchangeable, so make sure the breaker confirms they are supplying the correct side. When contacting a breaker through Findapart, specify nearside or offside clearly rather than just 'left' or 'right' to avoid any confusion. Double-check this against your registration before agreeing a price.
No — the first generation GG ran from 2002 to 2007 and the second generation GH from 2008 to 2012, and they are entirely different in platform and body design, so the rear lights are not compatible. You must match the generation to your car's year, and also confirm body style (saloon, hatch, or estate) as these differed across both generations. Always verify the correct part with the breaker using your registration number.
