Fitment questions

What years does the Mazda RX-8 headlight fit?

The Mazda RX-8 was produced as a single generation from 2003 to 2012, but it received a facelift in 2009 that updated the front-end styling including the headlights. Parts from the pre-facelift period (2003–2008) are most likely to match each other, and the same applies to facelift cars (2009–2012), but always confirm the exact interchange against your registration with the breaker before buying.

Will a 2007 RX-8 headlight fit a 2010 RX-8?

A 2007 car is pre-facelift and a 2010 car is post-facelift, and the 2009 facelift changed the front-end design including the headlights, so these may well be different units. You should not assume they are interchangeable — confirm with the breaker whether the specific headlight from a 2007 car crosses that 2009 boundary and fits your 2010 registration.

Does it matter whether my RX-8 is a 192, 231 or 320 model when buying a headlight?

No — the engine output variant (192, 231 or 320) does not affect headlight fitment, as the front-end panels are shared across those derivatives within the same facelift period. What matters is whether your car is pre-facelift (2003–2008) or facelift (2009–2012), so focus on that when asking a breaker for a quote.

Do I need to specify NS or OS when ordering an RX-8 headlight?

Yes, always specify nearside (NS, passenger side, left) or offside (OS, driver side, right), as the two headlights are handed and not interchangeable with each other. Let the breaker know which side you need alongside your registration year so they can pull the correct unit.

Does my RX-8 have xenon or halogen headlights — does that affect which used unit I can buy?

Some RX-8s were fitted with xenon headlights and others with halogen, and the two types are not directly interchangeable. You should confirm with the breaker which type is fitted to your specific car — checking your registration and existing headlight unit — before they source a matching replacement.

Will a headlight from a 2005 RX-8 fit a 2006 or 2008 car?

The 2005, 2006 and 2008 cars are all pre-facelift models, sitting within the same 2003–2008 phase before the 2009 facelift revised the front end, so headlights from across that period are very likely to be compatible. That said, always confirm the specific part matches your registration with the breaker before purchasing, as minor production changes can occasionally occur mid-run.
