What to check when buying a used Mercedes-Benz Vito headlight
A used headlight 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:
- State whether it's left or right
- State whether it's halogen, xenon or LED

Fitment questions
What generations did the Mercedes-Benz Vito come in, and does this affect which headlight I need?
The Vito has run across three main generations: the W638 (1996–2003), the W639 (2004–2014), and the W447 (2014–present). Headlights are generation-specific, so you must match your headlight to the correct generation based on your vehicle's registration year. Giving the breaker your full registration is the quickest way to confirm you're in the right generation.
Was the W639 Vito (2004–2014) facelifted, and will an earlier W639 headlight fit a later one?
Yes, the W639 Vito received a facelift in 2010, with updated front-end styling including revised headlights. Both pre-facelift (2004–2010) and post-facelift (2010–2014) W639 VitOs sit within the same generation, but the 2010 facelift is a key boundary — confirm with the breaker whether a specific headlight crosses that boundary before buying.
Does it matter whether my Vito is a long-wheelbase or short-wheelbase model when buying a headlight?
No — wheelbase makes no difference to headlight fitment on the Vito. Front-end panels including headlights are shared across all body lengths within a generation, so a headlight from a short-wheelbase W447, for example, will be the same part as one from a long-wheelbase W447. Focus your search on generation and facelift period instead.
Will a headlight from a 2012 Vito fit my 2015 Vito?
These two vehicles fall in different generations — the 2012 sits in the W639 (2004–2014) and the 2015 in the W447 (2014–present) — so the headlights are not the same and will not interchange. You'll need a W447 headlight for the 2015 model; confirm the exact part with the breaker against your registration to be sure.
Does the trim level affect which headlight fits my Vito — for example, does a Sport or Tourer trim use a different unit?
Trim level — whether that's a standard panel van, Sport, Tourer, or similar specification — does not affect headlight fitment on the Vito; the same headlight housing is used across trims within the same generation and facelift period. However, higher trims may have come with xenon or LED headlights rather than halogen, so if your vehicle has a specific lamp technology fitted you'll want to confirm that variant detail with the breaker against your registration.
I have a 2018 W447 Vito — did this generation receive a facelift, and does it affect the headlight?
Yes, the W447 Vito was facelifted in 2019, bringing updated front-end styling that included revised headlight units. If your 2018 vehicle is pre-facelift, you'll need a pre-2019 W447 headlight, and a post-facelift unit may not be a direct swap. Confirm the exact part with the breaker against your registration to make sure you're getting the correct version.
