Used sills vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The Mazda 6 ran across three distinct generations: the first-generation GG/GY platform (2002–2007), the second-generation GH platform (2008–2012), and the third-generation GJ platform (2013–2023). Sills are body-specific pressings that do not carry over between generations, so you must match the generation exactly. Within a generation, confirm with the breaker against your registration whether any mid-generation pressing changes affect your specific year.
Yes, body style is the most important factor when sourcing a Mazda 6 sill. The Mazda 6 was sold in saloon, hatchback (five-door fastback), and estate (Tourer) body styles, and the sill pressing differs between these — they are not interchangeable. Always tell the breaker your exact body style as well as your generation to avoid buying the wrong part.
No, the GH and GJ are entirely different platforms and the sills are unique to each generation. Even if they look broadly similar, the pressings will not align correctly on a different-generation shell. You need a sill sourced specifically from a GJ-platform Mazda 6 in the same body style as your car.
Trim level does not affect sill fitment on the Mazda 6 — the underlying pressing is the same whether the donor car was an SE, Sport, or GT Sport. The one cosmetic difference to be aware of is that some higher trim levels may have had body-coloured lower trims or different finisher strips attached to the sill, which may or may not be included with a used part. Make sure to check whether the sill comes with or without its associated trim pieces before buying.
This spans the GG/GY to GH generation boundary (the first generation ran to 2007, and the second generation began in 2008), so these are different platforms and the sills will not be interchangeable. You need a sill from another first-generation GG/GY Mazda 6, and you should also match the body style — saloon, hatchback, or estate — as these differ between variants. Confirm the exact part compatibility with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.
Yes, sills are handed — the nearside (NS, passenger side) and offside (OS, driver side) are mirror images of each other and are not interchangeable. When contacting a breaker, always specify clearly which side you need (NS or OS) as well as your generation and body style to make sure you receive the correct part.
