No two wishbones 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 Almera ran across two main UK generations: the N15 (1995–2000) and the N16 (2000–2006), with the N16 receiving a facelift around 2003. Wishbone geometry can differ between these generations, so always match your part to the correct generation rather than just the year. Confirm the generation with your breaker against your registration to be sure.
Both the 2001 and 2004 cars sit within the N16 generation (2000–2006), with the facelift falling around 2003. The facelift was primarily cosmetic, but whether the running gear changed at that point is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume it carries straight over. Always quote your reg so the breaker can cross-reference the exact part number.
For the Almera, the wishbone geometry is generally consistent across the range, but engine size can influence associated running-gear components such as brakes and hubs, so it is worth mentioning your engine when contacting a breaker. Confirm with the breaker against your registration that the donor car's engine size is compatible with yours before purchasing.
Trim level does not affect wishbone fitment on the Almera – the LX, GX, and SE are differentiated by interior and cosmetic specification, not by suspension geometry. You may notice cosmetic differences such as differing underbody protection or brackets between stripped-out and better-specified cars, but these do not change whether the wishbone itself fits. Focus on matching generation and side (NS or OS) rather than trim.
Yes, this matters significantly: nearside (NS, driver's left, kerb side) and offside (OS, driver's right, road centre side) wishbones are handed and are not interchangeable. Always specify NS or OS clearly when getting a quote from a breaker, and double-check the side before the part is dispatched.
The N15 (1995–2000) and N16 (2000–2006) are distinct generations with different platforms, so a wishbone from the N15 is very unlikely to be a direct fit for an N16. You should not assume interchangeability across this generation boundary, and you must confirm with the breaker against both registrations before purchasing. Matching the correct generation is the single most important step when sourcing this part.
