Fitment questions

What years does the Volkswagen LT run across, and does it have different generations to worry about?

The Volkswagen LT covers two distinct generations: the LT Mk1 ran from 1975 to 1996, and the LT Mk2 ran from 1996 to 2006 when the model was discontinued and replaced by the Crafter. Quarter panels are completely different between the two generations, so always make sure any used panel you source is from the correct Mk1 or Mk2 van. Never assume a panel from one generation will cross to the other.

Will a quarter panel from a 1998 LT fit my 2003 LT?

Both 1998 and 2003 fall within the LT Mk2 generation (1996–2006), so they share the same fundamental platform and body structure. However, wheelbase (short or long) and roof height (standard or high-roof) are critical for quarter panel fitment on any van, so confirm that the donor vehicle matches yours on both counts. Mid-generation pressing changes are also possible, so confirm the exact fit with the breaker against your registration before buying.

Does wheelbase or roof height affect which LT quarter panel I need?

Yes, both matter significantly for the LT. The van was offered in short-wheelbase and long-wheelbase variants, and in standard and high-roof configurations, all of which produce different rear quarter panel pressings. Always tell the breaker your wheelbase and roof height, not just the year, to avoid buying a panel that simply won't fit your vehicle.

Does it matter whether my LT has barn doors or a tailgate when sourcing a quarter panel?

Yes, this is an important detail for the LT. The rear aperture and the surrounding metalwork, including how the quarter panel ties into the rear corner, can differ between barn-door and tailgate variants. Always confirm your rear-door configuration with the breaker so they can match the correct panel to your van.

Does the LT trim level — for example a base or higher-spec van — affect which quarter panel fits?

Trim level makes no difference to quarter panel fitment on the LT; the metalwork is determined by body configuration, not specification level. You may find that higher-spec vans have additional side mouldings, badges, or paint finishes that a stripped-out donor panel lacks, but these are cosmetic differences you can address separately. Focus on generation, wheelbase, roof height, and door configuration rather than trim when sourcing your panel.

I've found an LT panel described as fitting a 'Mk1' — will it fit my early Mk2 from around 1997?

No — the LT Mk1 (1975–1996) and LT Mk2 (1996–2006) are entirely different vehicles with different body structures, so a Mk1 quarter panel will not fit a Mk2. The generation boundary here is a hard cut-off, not a grey area, so do not let a seller suggest otherwise. Confirm the Mk2 origin of any panel with the breaker against your registration before proceeding.
