Cheap Peugeot 508 Door Handle

The first-generation 508 ran from 2011 to 2018, with a facelift introduced in 2014 that brought some exterior styling changes. Handles from within the pre-facelift period (2011–2014) will generally match each other, and the same applies within the post-facelift period (2014–2018), but whether a handle crosses that 2014 boundary without issue is something you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration. The second generation 508 launched in 2018 and is a completely different car, so parts from that car will not fit a first-gen model.

The 508 was offered as a saloon and as an SW (estate), and because both body styles are four-door cars the front and rear door handles are the same between them — the door apertures are shared. What matters far more is which side you need: NS (nearside, passenger/left) or OS (offside, driver/right), and whether it is a front or rear door handle, so make sure you specify that clearly when getting quotes from breakers.

Trim level — whether Access, Active, Allure, or GT — does not affect door handle fitment on the 508; the door shell and handle aperture are the same across the range. You may find handles from higher trims are finished differently or came body-coloured from the factory, but that is a cosmetic difference only and the handle itself will fit regardless. Confirm the generation, the door position, and the side (NS or OS) with your breaker and you will be fine.

The 2013 car is a pre-facelift first-generation 508, while the 2016 car sits in the post-facelift period after the 2014 refresh. Both are first-generation cars, so the body structure is closely related, but whether the handle from a 2016 directly swaps onto a 2013 without any difference in the mounting or exterior profile is something you should check with the breaker using both registrations. Always confirm NS or OS and front or rear position at the same time.

Yes, the key fitment factors are the same: generation (first-gen 2011–2018 or second-gen 2018 onwards), whether it is a front or rear door, and the side (NS nearside or OS offside). The 2014 facelift is still a potential boundary worth flagging to the breaker, as interior trim parts can differ across a refresh even when exterior parts do not. Give the breaker your registration so they can cross-reference the exact part rather than relying on year alone.

Engine choice has no bearing whatsoever on door handle fitment, so whether the donor car was a diesel or petrol makes no difference. Colour is purely cosmetic — a handle from a different-coloured car can be resprayed to match yours, and the fitment frame itself is identical. Focus on getting the generation, door position, and side (NS or OS) right, and let the breaker match it against your registration for confidence.
