Fitment on a used indicator light varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
The T5 generation ran from 2003 to 2015, but there was a significant facelift in 2010 that brought new front-end styling including revised lights, so a pre-2010 indicator is very unlikely to match a post-2010 van. Both your van and a 2010 donor are within the facelifted T5 period, so fitment is plausible, but you should confirm the exact part against your registration with the breaker before buying.
No — the T6 is a distinct generation that launched in 2015 with a completely different front-end design, and its indicator lights will not interchange with T5 parts. Make sure you tell the breaker whether you have a T5 (2003–2015) or a T6 (2015–2019) or T6.1 (2019 onwards), as each has its own indicator style.
No — indicator lights are part of the front-end panel set, which is shared across all wheelbases and roof heights within the same generation and facelift period. A long-wheelbase high-roof T6 uses the same front indicators as a short-wheelbase low-roof T6, so you don't need to worry about those details when sourcing a used light.
Trim level makes no difference to indicator fitment on the Transporter — the front-end panels, including indicators, are the same across Startline, Trendline and Highline within the same generation and facelift period. The one thing worth checking is whether your van has any optional integrated daytime running light or chrome surround finishes that you'd want to match aesthetically, but confirm any such detail with the breaker against your registration.
Yes — the T6 was updated to the T6.1 in 2019, which brought a revised front end with new headlights and a redesigned grille area that affects the indicator design. Whether a T6 pre-2019 indicator crosses over to a T6.1 is something you should confirm directly with the breaker against your registration, as these boundary cases can catch buyers out.
No — whether your van has a 2.0 TDI, a 2.5 TDI, or any other engine variant, the indicator lights are the same within a given generation and facelift period, so engine choice has no bearing on sourcing the correct part. Just focus on your van's generation (T5, T6 or T6.1) and whether it is pre- or post-facelift when describing your requirements to the breaker.
