No two door lock mechanisms 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 Micra has gone through distinct generations — the K11 (roughly 1992–2002), the K12 (2003–2010), and the K13 (2010–2017) — and door lock mechanisms are not interchangeable across these generations as the door frames and mounting points differ between them. Within the same generation there is a better chance of compatibility, but you should still confirm the exact year and body style with the breaker against your registration before buying.
Yes, this matters significantly — the front door on a 3-door Micra is longer than the front door on a 5-door, so the lock mechanism and its mounting geometry differ between the two body styles. Always tell the breaker whether your car is a 3-door or 5-door so they can supply the correct part.
Yes, side is critical — the nearside (NS, passenger left) and offside (OS, driver right) mechanisms are mirror images of each other and are not interchangeable. When contacting a breaker, always specify NS or OS alongside your generation and door count so they can match the correct unit.
Trim level does not affect the fitment of the door lock mechanism itself — the underlying door structure and lock mounting points are the same across trims like Visia, Acenta, and Tekna within the same generation. You may find cosmetic differences such as paint finish on the part, but these do not affect whether it fits; the mechanism can be resprayed or matched as needed.
This is a boundary year to be careful about, as the K12 generation ran to around 2010 and the K13 began from 2010 onwards, meaning a 2010 car could be either generation depending on exact build date. Name the generation to the breaker and confirm against your registration plate to establish which generation you actually have before ordering, as mechanisms from the two generations will not interchange.
No — engine size has no bearing on door lock mechanism fitment; the door structure is the same regardless of whether your Micra has a 1.0, 1.2, or 1.4 engine. Focus instead on generation, body style (3-door or 5-door), and side (NS or OS) when sourcing a used part from a breaker.
