Used indicator 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 Volkswagen Taro was a pickup truck sold in Europe from 1989 to 1997, built as a rebadged Toyota Hilux Surf/Pickup in a joint venture with Toyota, and it absolutely did have indicator lights fitted as standard to all variants. You will find indicators on the front corners, rear, and in some cases on the wing mirrors or side repeaters depending on the year and specification.
The Taro received a facelift around 1993 which updated the front-end styling including the lights and bumpers, so early and late indicators are not necessarily the same part. You should name that 1993 boundary clearly to the breaker and ask them to confirm whether the part from their donor vehicle matches your pre- or post-facelift Taro. Cross-facelift fitment is possible in some cases but cannot be guaranteed without checking against your registration.
No — the Taro's indicator lights are front-end or body-mounted components and are shared across engine and drivetrain variants, so whether your Taro is petrol, diesel, two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive makes no difference to which indicator fits. What matters is the build year and whether your vehicle is a pre- or post-facelift model, so lead with those details when contacting a breaker.
Trim level does not affect indicator fitment on the Taro, as the lights are the same across the range for a given build period. There may be minor cosmetic differences between indicators from different specifications, so it is worth asking the breaker what trim their donor vehicle was if you want the closest visual match, but these are cosmetic rather than fitment concerns.
Because the Taro was mechanically based on the Toyota Hilux of the same era, there is a reasonable chance of parts compatibility, but the badging, trim and some exterior details differed between the two brands. This is worth asking a breaker directly — confirm your Taro's exact year and facelift status alongside the equivalent Hilux generation before assuming a part will interchange.
Always specify nearside (NS, passenger side, kerb side) or offside (OS, driver side, road side) clearly when contacting a breaker, as left and right indicators are not interchangeable. Also tell the breaker your vehicle's registration or build year so they can confirm whether their donor Taro is the same pre- or post-1993 facelift generation as yours.
