Used Vauxhall Agila Headrest

The Vauxhall Agila ran across two distinct generations: the A (2000–2004) and the B (2004–2007), and these are fundamentally different cars built on different platforms, so headrests from an Agila A will not interchange with an Agila B. Always source a headrest from the same generation as your own car. Confirm the exact generation of any part with the breaker against your registration before purchasing.

Trim level can matter for Agila headrests because seat style and upholstery varied across trims such as Expression, Club, Design, and Sport, meaning the headrest shape, stalk diameter, or covering may differ between grades. When contacting a breaker, give them your trim level alongside your registration so they can match the correct seat style. This is especially worth checking if your Agila has Sports or upgraded seats, as these may differ from the standard fit.

For front headrests the door count generally makes no difference, as the front seat design on the Agila does not change between body styles. For rear headrests it is worth confirming with the breaker, as rear seat configurations can occasionally differ, but in most cases the rear headrests are consistent across door counts within the same generation and trim. Always confirm against your registration with the breaker to be sure.

For most standard Agila headrests the nearside and offside front headrests are identical and interchangeable, since they typically share the same seat design on both sides. However, if your car has a seat with an integrated side-airbag, the seat itself differs by side, and you should confirm the exact seat type with the breaker. For standard seats without airbag integration, side is unlikely to matter, but it costs nothing to double-check when getting your quote.

Both years fall within the Agila B generation (2004–2007), so a headrest from a 2004 model is broadly likely to be compatible with a 2006 car provided the trim level and seat style match. That said, minor mid-cycle changes can occasionally affect interior components, so confirm with the breaker that the donor car's trim and seat type match yours before buying. Providing your full registration to the breaker is the safest way to verify fitment.

A standard headrest is not a safety-critical component in the way that airbags or pretensioner seatbelts are, and swapping a headrest is generally a straightforward task that most owners can do themselves. Simply ensure the stalks locate correctly into the seat guides and that the headrest sits securely before driving. If you are in any doubt about the seat type or whether your seats incorporate any airbag components, consult a professional fitter before disturbing the seat assembly.
