Used gear sticks vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
Only on manual-gearbox variants — the Signum was also sold with an automatic gearbox, which uses a selector rather than a traditional gear stick, so the part you need depends entirely on which gearbox your car has. Check your V5 or a VIN check to confirm whether your Signum is manual or automatic before searching. If your car is automatic and you need the selector mechanism, search for 'gear selector' or 'automatic gear selector' instead.
The Signum ran as a single generation from 2003 to 2008, with a facelift in 2005, so a 2003 and a 2006 car sit either side of that facelift boundary. Engine code and gearbox type are the key fitment factors, and whether the gear stick assembly changed at the 2005 facelift is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume. Supply your engine code (from the V5 or a VIN check) alongside your reg when requesting a quote.
Trim level does not affect gear stick fitment on the Signum — Design, Elite, and Vector variants all share the same mechanical gearbox assembly where the same engine and gearbox codes are fitted. What can differ between trims is the appearance or feel of the gear knob itself, so a used item from a lower trim may look slightly different to your original even if it bolts straight on. If matching the look matters to you, mention your trim to the breaker so they can try to source a visually similar unit.
Yes — engine code is the single most important detail for mechanical parts like the gear stick and gearbox assembly, because different engines were paired with different gearboxes requiring different shift mechanisms. The engine code is stamped on the engine block and listed on your V5 or via a VIN check, and giving it to a breaker is far more useful than quoting just the year or trim. Fuel type (petrol or diesel) also matters because it often determines which gearbox family was fitted.
The Signum shared its platform and many mechanicals with the Vectra C (2002–2008), and some internal gearbox parts may be common across the two models. Whether the gear stick assembly, linkage, and surround interchange directly is something to confirm with the breaker against both registrations, as mounting or trim differences may exist. A good breaker with access to trade data will be able to cross-reference the part numbers quickly.
