No two rear lights are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:
The Nissan Almera N16 generation ran from 2000 to 2006, with a facelift introduced in 2003 that brought revised rear light units, so a pre-facelift light from 2000-2002 is unlikely to be a straight swap onto a post-facelift 2003-2006 car. If your car sits right on that 2003 boundary, confirm the exact facelift cut-off against your registration with the breaker before ordering. Never assume fitment across a facelift year without checking.
Yes, body style is the single most important factor for Almera N16 rear lights — the hatchback and saloon have completely different rear lamp assemblies and they will not interchange. Make sure you tell the breaker whether your car is a hatchback or saloon before getting a quote, as the parts look similar in listings but are not compatible.
Trim level — whether LX, SE, SVE or any other — does not affect which rear light fits your Almera N16, so you don't need to match trim when sourcing from a breaker. You may find minor cosmetic differences such as lens tinting on higher-spec cars, so mention your trim to the breaker if you want the closest visual match, but it won't affect whether the unit physically fits.
No — the N15 (1995-2000) and N16 (2000-2006) are entirely different generations with different body structures and rear lamp designs, so parts from one will not fit the other. Always confirm the exact generation with the breaker by providing your registration, and source a light specifically for your generation.
Yes, nearside and offside rear lights are handed and are not interchangeable, so always specify which side you need when contacting a breaker — NS is the passenger side (left) and OS is the driver side (right) in a UK right-hand-drive car. Getting this wrong is one of the most common ordering mistakes, so double-check by looking at your car before you enquire.
The Almera name was applied to different vehicles in different markets, and some variants sold elsewhere share the N16 platform but may have had different body pressings or lamp configurations. You should confirm with the breaker that any part sourced from a non-UK-market car matches your specific body style and facelift date against your registration before purchasing.
