No two seats are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:
The T6 ran from 2015 to 2019, with the facelifted T6.1 arriving in 2019, so a pre-facelift T6 seat and a post-facelift T6.1 seat sit either side of a generation boundary; whether they interchange depends on the specific trim and seat style, so confirm cross-boundary compatibility with the breaker against your registration before buying.
Yes, door count matters because the Transporter was offered in panel van, kombi and minibus body styles with varying seating configurations, and the side the seat is on (nearside/NS or offside/OS) also affects fitment, so always tell the breaker your exact body style, door count and which seat position you need.
The T5 ran from 2003 to 2015 and the T6 from 2015 onwards, making these separate generations with different interior architectures; seats are very unlikely to be a direct swap, and you should confirm with the breaker against both registrations rather than assuming compatibility.
Yes, trim level matters because seat style varies across the Transporter range — for example, a Highline may have more supportive or leather-faced seats compared to a Trendline or Comfortline — so tell the breaker your trim grade to ensure the seat style matches, and bear in mind a seat from a different trim may look or feel noticeably different even if the mounting points line up.
Seats fitted with side airbags or pretensioner seatbelts are safety-critical components — both are single-use once deployed and must be confirmed unused before fitting — and professional fitting by a qualified technician is strongly recommended; you should also confirm airbag module and pretensioner variant compatibility with the breaker against your specific registration, as these details vary and cannot be assumed.
The T5 received a facelift in 2009, and while both fall within the same generation, seat trim and upholstery styles can differ across that facelift boundary; confirm with the breaker whether the specific seat from each model year is interchangeable against your registration, as mounting points may match but the seat style or fixings could differ.
