Fitment questions

What years does the Vauxhall Insignia headlight fit?

The Insignia ran across two main generations: the first-generation (Mk1) ran from 2008 to 2017, and the second-generation (Mk2, also known as the B) ran from 2017 onwards. Within the Mk1 there was a significant facelift in 2013 which updated the front end including the headlights, so a pre-facelift light (2008–2013) and a post-facelift light (2013–2017) are unlikely to be the same unit. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before buying.

Will a 2012 Insignia headlight fit a 2015 Insignia?

These two cars sit either side of the Mk1 facelift, which took place in 2013, so the front-end styling changed at that point. A 2012 headlight is from the pre-facelift Mk1 and a 2015 unit is from the post-facelift Mk1, meaning they are likely different parts. Confirm with the breaker whether the specific headlight you're being quoted crosses that 2013 facelift boundary before purchasing.

Does the Insignia headlight differ between SE, SRi, and Elite trim levels?

Trim level does not affect the basic fitment of the headlight — the front-end structure is shared across SE, SRi, Elite and other trims within the same generation and facelift period. However, higher trims such as Elite may have been fitted with xenon or bi-xenon headlights while lower trims used halogens, which means the units themselves can differ in specification even if the aperture is the same. Confirm with the breaker whether the headlight type (halogen, xenon, or LED) on their donor vehicle matches what your car currently has.

Is the headlight the same across all Insignia body styles — hatchback, Sports Tourer and Grand Sport?

Within the same generation and facelift period, the front-end panels including headlights are shared across the different Insignia body styles, as the bodies differ behind the A-pillar rather than at the front. So a Sports Tourer and a hatchback of the same generation and facelift period should use the same headlight. Confirm the exact part with the breaker against your registration to be certain.

Will a Mk2 Insignia headlight (2017 onwards) fit my older Mk1?

No — the Mk1 (2008–2017) and Mk2 (2017 onwards) are entirely different generations built on different platforms, so the headlights are not interchangeable between them. Always source a headlight from the correct generation for your car.

I need a passenger-side headlight for my Insignia — does it matter which side I specify?

Yes, NS (nearside, passenger side) and OS (offside, driver side) headlights are handed and are not interchangeable with each other. When contacting a breaker, always specify NS or OS clearly alongside your registration number so they can match the correct unit from their donor vehicle.
