Yes, the Vauxhall Arena — Vauxhall's badge-engineered version of the Renault Trafic and Fiat Talento van — was fitted with a glove box on the passenger side dashboard as standard across its production run in the late 1990s to early 2000s. It is a genuine interior trim part you can source from a breaker.
The Arena was only sold in the UK over a relatively short and single-generation window, running broadly from around 1997 to 2001, so there is no distinct facelift generation boundary to worry about in the way there would be with a longer-running model. Parts from across that production span are generally likely to be compatible, but you should confirm the exact year of the donor vehicle with the breaker against your registration to be sure of a match.
For a straightforward storage glove box, trim level is unlikely to make a significant difference to whether the unit physically fits, as the dashboard structure on the Arena was broadly consistent across variants. That said, there may be minor cosmetic differences in finish or colour between trim levels, so let the breaker know your trim and interior colour when getting a quote to get the closest visual match.
No, the engine makes no difference whatsoever to glove box fitment — this is a purely interior trim part and is not affected by whether your Arena has a petrol or diesel engine. Just focus on matching the production year and interior trim with the breaker.
The Vauxhall Arena shares its underpinnings and bodyshell with the Renault Trafic (Mk1) and Fiat Talento of the same era, so there is a reasonable chance of compatibility between these badge-engineered siblings. However, interior trim details and fixings can vary between manufacturers even on shared platforms, so you should confirm compatibility carefully with the breaker before purchasing.
The glove box on the Vauxhall Arena is located on the nearside (NS), meaning the passenger side of the dashboard, which is the left-hand side in a UK right-hand-drive vehicle. When contacting a breaker, confirming NS is sufficient — there is no offside glove box variant to worry about on this model.
