Used headrests vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
Yes, the Nissan Interstar (sold in the UK roughly 2002–2010, badged on the Renault Master / Opel Movano platform) was fitted with headrests on its front seats as standard across its production run. Depending on trim and seat type, the driver and passenger seats could have adjustable headrests, so there is a genuine used part to look for. If you are searching for a rear headrest, bear in mind the Interstar is a panel van in its most common form and rear passenger seating with headrests was only present on crew-cab or combi (window van) variants, so confirm which body style your vehicle is before buying.
The Nissan Interstar ran as a single generation throughout its UK lifespan (approximately 2002–2010), based on the X70 platform, but there were running changes and facelifts during that period that could affect seat trim and headrest fitment. While many front headrest posts and seat designs remained consistent, you should not assume a headrest from a 2003 van will drop straight into a 2008 van without checking. Always confirm the exact seat type and headrest post diameter and spacing with the breaker against your registration number before purchasing.
It can do, yes — the Interstar was available in different specification levels (such as base, S, and higher fleet specs), and seat type or upholstery could vary between them, which may affect the headrest design or whether it is a single-piece or adjustable type. If your van has upgraded or different seats from the base specification, the headrest profile or post arrangement could differ from a standard example. Give the breaker your registration and describe your current seat type so they can match the correct headrest rather than simply going by year alone.
For most standard bench or individual front seats on the Interstar, headrests are interchangeable between the offside (driver) and nearside (passenger) positions because they are symmetrical — the post spacing and dimensions are typically the same. However, if your van has a multi-adjustable or specially bolstered driver's seat as part of a higher specification, double-check with the breaker that the headrest you are buying matches your exact seat, as these can occasionally differ. In the majority of cases side should not be a concern, but it is worth a quick confirmation.
Because the Nissan Interstar shares its platform and body with the Renault Master (X70) and Vauxhall/Opel Movano of the same era, there is a reasonable chance that front seat headrests from those sister vehicles may be compatible, as the seating architecture is closely related. However, seat specifications and trim choices varied independently across the three brands, so a headrest that fits a Master may not be an identical match for your specific Interstar seat. Confirm the post dimensions, spacing, and seat fabric or material type with the breaker before buying to avoid an unnecessary return.
Crew cab and combi variants of the Interstar had rear bench seating with their own headrests, and these are likely to be different parts from the front seat headrests, so you need to specify which row you are replacing. Rear bench headrests from crew cab versions may also differ from those in combi passenger variants depending on seat specification, so give the breaker your registration and confirm the exact seating position. Because this is less common than front headrest enquiries, availability from dismantlers may be more limited, so be prepared to search across Movano and Master breakers as well for cross-platform options.
