Vauxhall Vectra Headrest Replacement Parts

The Vectra ran across two main generations — the C (2002–2008) and the earlier B (1995–2002) — and headrests are not interchangeable between them as the seat designs differ. Within the same generation, fitment is generally consistent, but trim level can affect the seat style, so a headrest from the same generation and the same or equivalent trim is your best starting point. Always confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before buying.

No — the Vectra B (1995–2002) and Vectra C (2002–2008) have different seat designs, so headrests from one generation will not swap directly into the other. Stick to parts sourced from the same generation as your car. Your breaker can confirm compatibility against your registration.

Yes, it can — the Vectra was sold in trims including Expression, Life, Club, Design, Elegance, and SRi, and higher or sportier trims sometimes featured different seat styles that affect headrest shape or fitment. If your car has standard cloth seats you should be fine matching to another car with the same seat type, but SRi or leather-trimmed models may need a closer match. Tell your breaker your trim level as well as your registration so they can pull the right part.

Yes — front and rear headrests are different parts and are not interchangeable, so you need to be clear with the breaker about which row you need. Rear headrests on the Vectra can also vary depending on the number of seating positions in the back, so mention whether you need a centre or outer rear headrest if applicable. Quoting your registration and the exact seating position will help the breaker find the right match.

Both a 2004 and a 2007 Vectra fall within the Vectra C generation (2002–2008), so there is a good chance of compatibility if the trim and seat style match. However, the Vectra C received a facelift in 2005 which may have brought interior updates, so fitment across that boundary is not guaranteed without checking. Ask your breaker to verify the part against both registrations to be sure.

For front headrests, body style generally makes no difference as the front seat design is shared across variants. Rear headrests could in principle vary if rear seat configurations differ between body styles, though the main factors remain generation and trim. Your breaker is best placed to confirm whether the specific headrest position you need is body-style-dependent on the Vectra.
