Used Vauxhall Insignia Side Skirt

This is the key question to check carefully: the Insignia Mk1 ran from 2008 to 2017, but it received a significant facelift in 2013 that changed the exterior styling, so a pre-facelift side skirt and a post-facelift side skirt may not look the same or align correctly. The 2013 facelift boundary is well established, meaning a 2010 car is pre-facelift and a 2014 car is post-facelift. Whether the skirt itself physically interchanges across that boundary is something you should confirm directly with the breaker against your registration before buying.

Side skirts run along the sill between the front and rear wheel arches, and on the Mk1 Insignia the sill length can vary between the hatchback or saloon and the longer Sports Tourer estate body. You should confirm with the breaker which body style the skirt they have came from and check it matches your own, as fitting a skirt from the wrong body style may mean it does not align with the bumper extensions or rear quarter correctly.

Trim level does not fundamentally affect side skirt fitment in terms of mounting points or sill length, but it can affect appearance, because sporty trims like SRi typically came with a more pronounced or differently styled side skirt as part of a body kit package. If your car is a standard Design or SE and you fit an SRi skirt, it may look out of place unless you update the front and rear bumpers to match, and vice versa. The breaker should be able to confirm the trim the part came from so you can decide if the style suits your car.

No - the Insignia B (Grand Sport, Sports Tourer and Country Tourer) launched in 2017 on an entirely new platform and is a different generation to the Mk1 Insignia A that ran from 2008 to 2017, so parts between the two generations are not interchangeable. Always make sure the breaker confirms the part came from the same generation as your car.

No - side skirts are handed, meaning the nearside (NS, passenger side) and offside (OS, driver side) skirts are mirror images of each other and are not interchangeable. When requesting a quote, always specify which side you need so the breaker can confirm they have the correct one.

No - the engine and gearbox have no bearing on side skirt fitment whatsoever, as the skirts are purely body panels attached to the outer sill. What matters is the generation (Mk1 2008-2017 or Mk2 2017 onwards), the facelift period within that generation, and the body style, so focus on those details when describing your car to the breaker.
