Volkswagen Scirocco Sun Visor Replacement Parts

The Volkswagen Scirocco was sold in the UK in two main generations: the Mk1/Mk2 (1970s–1992) and the Mk3 (2008–2017), and these generations are completely different cars sharing no interior parts. Within the Mk3, sun visors should generally match across the production run, but if your car is near the 2014 facelift you should confirm with the breaker whether the visor from a pre-facelift car matches yours, as trim finishes can vary. Always give the breaker your registration so they can verify against the exact vehicle.

The Mk3 Scirocco ran from 2008 to 2017, with a facelift in 2014, meaning a 2013 car is pre-facelift and a 2015 car is post-facelift. The sun visor may well interchange as the basic fitment points are similar, but interior trim finishes and any vanity mirror wiring or lighting could differ across that facelift boundary. Ask the breaker to check both registration plates before agreeing a sale, rather than relying on year alone.

The Mk3 Scirocco was sold in trims including S, SE, R-Line, and R, and while the fundamental sun visor shape and mounting is the same across the range, cosmetic finishes such as fabric colour, stitching, or whether a vanity mirror and light are included can differ between trim levels. When contacting a breaker, mention your trim level so they can match the finish as closely as possible, even though the physical fitment should be compatible. This won't guarantee an exact cosmetic match but will improve your chances of a good result.

No — driver's side (OS, offside, right-hand side in a UK right-hand-drive Scirocco) and passenger's side (NS, nearside, left-hand side) sun visors are handed and are not interchangeable with each other. Always tell the breaker which side you need, and confirm whether your car is right-hand drive, as the Scirocco was also sold in left-hand-drive markets and some dismantled cars may have come from Europe. Getting the correct side is essential for the visor to swing and clip correctly.

The Mk3 Scirocco shares its platform with the Mk5 and Mk6 Golf, and some interior components do cross over between VW models of that era, but sun visor shape, curvature, and trim finish are often body-specific. It is possible some parts interchange, but this is not something to assume — ask your breaker to cross-reference the part number against your registration rather than ordering a Golf visor and hoping it fits. Sticking to Scirocco-sourced parts is the safest approach.

Give the breaker your full registration number, specify whether you need the driver's side (OS) or passenger's side (NS) visor, and mention your trim level (such as S, SE, R-Line, or R) so they can try to match the interior colour and finish. It also helps to note whether your visor has a vanity mirror or a lit vanity mirror, as not all trim levels include these features. The more detail you provide upfront, the better your chances of a good cosmetic and functional match from the used part.
