Used Nissan GT-R Window Switch

Yes, the Nissan GT-R (R35 generation, 2009-present in the UK) is a fully equipped performance car and has always been fitted with electric windows and window switches as standard across all variants. There are no manual-window versions of this model, so a window switch is a genuine part you can source from a breaker.

The GT-R R35 received notable updates over the years, with significant revisions around 2011 and again in 2016, and it is not guaranteed that switches are interchangeable across those boundaries even though the body shell remained the same generation. You should confirm with the breaker that the switch from their donor car matches your exact registration, as interior trim and switch designs can change between model year updates. Never assume fitment across a revision boundary without checking.

Yes, side matters — the driver's side (OS, offside, right-hand side in UK right-hand-drive cars) switch typically carries the master controls for all windows, while the passenger side (NS, nearside, left) switch usually only controls that door's window. Make sure you tell the breaker which side you need, and confirm the switch came from a right-hand-drive GT-R, as left-hand-drive export models will have the master switch on the opposite side.

The GT-R was sold in the UK in variants including the Premium Edition and Track Edition among others, but trim level does not fundamentally alter the fitment of the window switch in the door. You may find minor cosmetic differences in switch finish or surround between trim levels, but the functional fitment is determined by the model year and side rather than the trim name. Confirm the exact part with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

The GT-R R35 uses a bespoke interior specific to that model and its window switches are not shared with mainstream Nissan models like the 370Z or Qashqai. You will need to source a switch from a GT-R R35 donor car specifically, so tell the breaker the model, the model year of your car, and the side you need. Trying to fit a switch from another Nissan model is unlikely to work and is not recommended.

Give the breaker your full vehicle registration number so they can check the exact model year and specification of your GT-R, as the R35 was updated several times between its 2009 UK introduction and later production years. Specify clearly whether you need the NS (nearside, passenger, left) or OS (offside, driver, right) switch, since they are not interchangeable. A reputable breaker will be able to cross-reference the part against their donor vehicle's details before you commit to buying.
