Used rear lights 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:
The Vauxhall Signum was produced from 2003 to 2008 on the GM Z-platform, and received a facelift in 2005 that brought revised rear light units. This means a pre-facelift rear light (2003–2005) and a post-facelift rear light (2005–2008) are unlikely to be directly interchangeable, so if your car sits around that 2005 boundary you should confirm the exact style of light fitted against your registration with the breaker before buying.
The 2004 car is pre-facelift and the 2006 car is post-facelift, and these generations had different rear light designs, so a straight swap is not guaranteed. Name that 2005 facelift boundary to the breaker and ask them to confirm whether the part they have matches your post-facelift car before purchasing.
Trim level does not affect rear light fitment on the Signum — the same light units were used across Design, Vector, and Elite grades. You may find cosmetic differences such as chrome surrounds or smoked lenses depending on what the donor car was specced with, so check the breaker's photos if the finish matters to you, but the mounting and wiring should be the same.
The Signum shares its Z-platform with the Vectra C but is a distinct five-door hatchback body style with its own unique rear end, so the rear lights are not the same as a Vectra C saloon or estate. Whether any specific panels or light units cross over between these two related models is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration rather than assume.
Yes — NS (nearside, left, kerb side) and OS (offside, right, driver's side) rear lights are handed and not interchangeable with each other. Always specify which side you need when contacting a breaker, and double-check by looking at your car from the rear to confirm which unit is damaged.
Yes, it matters because of the 2005 facelift which brought changed rear light units, so a listing without a year could be either generation. Always ask the breaker to confirm the model year of their donor vehicle and compare it against your own car's registration to make sure you are getting the correct pre- or post-facelift unit.
