What to check when buying a used Vauxhall Cavalier rear view mirror
A used rear view mirror that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:

Fitment questions
What generation is my Vauxhall Cavalier and does it affect which rear view mirror I need?
The Cavalier ran across three main UK generations: Mk1 (1975–1981), Mk2 (1981–1988), and Mk3 (1988–1995), with the Mk3 receiving a facelift around 1992. The interior rear view mirror is generation-specific, so you must match the mirror to your generation rather than just the year. Tell the breaker which generation you have and they will be able to identify the correct part.
Will a rear view mirror from an early Mk3 Cavalier (1988–1992) fit my post-facelift 1992–1995 Mk3?
Both are Mk3 Cavaliers and in many cases the interior mirror and its mounting are shared across the pre- and post-facelift cars, but whether a specific mirror crosses the 1992 facelift boundary without issue is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration. Supply your reg or VIN so the breaker can check the exact fitment before purchasing.
Does the trim level matter when buying a used rear view mirror for a Vauxhall Cavalier?
For the basic interior rear view mirror the trim level — whether your car is an L, GL, GLS, CD, or SRi — does not affect fitment, as the mirror mounting and glass are shared across the range. You may notice minor cosmetic differences such as frame colour or finish depending on the donor car's trim, so if appearance matters to you it is worth mentioning this to the breaker.
Does it matter whether my Cavalier is a saloon, hatchback, or estate when buying a rear view mirror?
The interior rear view mirror is mounted to the windscreen and is not affected by body style, so a mirror from a saloon, hatchback, or estate Mk3 Cavalier of the same generation should be directly interchangeable. Just make sure the generation matches and confirm with the breaker if you have any doubt.
Does the engine size affect which rear view mirror fits a Vauxhall Cavalier?
No — engine size and type have no bearing on interior rear view mirror fitment for the Cavalier. Whether your car has a 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, or diesel engine, the mirror is determined by generation and trim, not what is under the bonnet.
Can I use a Cavalier rear view mirror with an auto-dimming or rain sensor function?
Some later Mk3 Cavaliers were fitted with electrically adjustable or uprated mirrors depending on specification, so it is worth checking with the breaker whether the mirror from their donor car matches your car's wiring and mounting. If your car has a standard manual mirror and you are replacing like-for-like, fitment is straightforward, but confirm the connector type with the breaker if your car or the donor car has any electrical function on the mirror.
