Fitment questions

Will a bulkhead from a T5 Transporter fit a T6?

No – the T5 (2003–2015) and T6 (2015–2019, with the T6.1 facelift from 2019) are different generations with different body structures, so their bulkheads are not interchangeable. Always confirm the exact generation against your registration with the breaker before ordering.

Does a T5 bulkhead fit all years of the T5, including pre- and post-facelift?

The T5 ran from 2003 to 2015 and received a facelift in 2009, and while the core platform remained the same, there may have been pressing or panel changes across that boundary that affect bulkhead fitment. Name the generation confidently – T5 pre-facelift (2003–2009) or post-facelift (2009–2015) – when speaking to the breaker, and ask them to check the part against your specific registration to be sure.

Does wheelbase or roof height affect which Transporter bulkhead I need?

Yes – for vans like the Transporter, wheelbase (short wheelbase or long wheelbase) and roof height (standard or high roof) can affect the dimensions and fit of structural panels including the bulkhead. Always tell the breaker your exact wheelbase and roof height configuration so they can match the correct part to your vehicle.

Does it matter whether my T6 Transporter has barn doors or a tailgate when buying a bulkhead?

For a bulkhead specifically – which sits between the cab and the load area rather than at the rear – the rear door style (barn doors or tailgate) does not typically affect fitment. However, it is worth mentioning your door configuration to the breaker when you make your enquiry, just so they can confirm nothing differs on your particular body variant.

Does the trim level affect which bulkhead I need – for example, will a part from a Transporter Kombi or Shuttle fit a standard Panel Van?

Trim level itself does not affect bulkhead fitment, but body style does – a Kombi or Shuttle with side windows or additional seating may have a differently pressed or configured bulkhead compared with a standard Panel Van. Confirm the body style of both the donor vehicle and your own with the breaker to ensure the part is the correct match.

I have a 2012 T5 – will a bulkhead from a 2007 T5 fit it?

Both years sit within the T5 generation (2003–2015), though 2007 is pre-facelift and 2012 is post-facelift (the facelift arrived in 2009), which means there is a potential boundary crossing. Whether the bulkhead pressing changed at that point is something you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations before committing to the purchase.
