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 Vivaro has run across two main generations: the first generation (Mk1) ran from 2001 to 2014, with a facelift around 2006, and the second generation (Mk2) ran from 2014 onwards with a facelift in 2019. Rear lights are generation-specific, so a Mk1 unit will not fit a Mk2 van and vice versa. Always confirm the generation against your registration with the breaker before ordering.
These two years fall either side of the Mk1-to-Mk2 generational change in 2014, so the rear lights are from completely different generations and are very unlikely to be interchangeable. A 2013 van is Mk1 and a 2015 van is Mk2, meaning the body pressings and light assemblies differ entirely. Confirm this with the breaker against both registrations before buying.
Yes, this matters significantly – barn-door and tailgate Vivaros have different rear panel arrangements, and the light units are designed around each specific configuration. Always tell the breaker which type your van has, as the parts are not interchangeable between the two. Confirming this alongside your registration will help the breaker pull the correct unit.
Wheelbase (short wheelbase or long wheelbase) and roof height (low roof or high roof) can affect body panel layout at the rear, so it is worth confirming these details with the breaker. The rear light itself may or may not differ between variants, and the breaker will be best placed to confirm this against your specific registration. Do not assume a light from a different wheelbase or roof-height variant will be a direct swap without checking.
Engine and trim level do not affect rear light fitment on the Vivaro – the lights are determined by generation, body configuration, wheelbase, and roof height rather than whether the van is a Sport, Sportive, or base-spec model. That said, some trim levels may have had different lens tints or styling details, so the visual appearance of a light from a Sport van may differ slightly from a standard one. Confirm the specific unit with the breaker if a cosmetic match is important to you.
The Mk2 Vivaro received a facelift in 2019, and whether a pre-facelift 2017 Mk2 rear light crosses over to a facelifted 2019 Mk2 van is not something that can be confirmed here. Name the boundary – 2019 facelift – and whether the light units changed at that point is exactly the kind of detail you should verify with the breaker against both registrations. Provide your full registration to the breaker so they can cross-reference the part accurately.
