Hyundai Accent Left Rear Seat
Whether your Accent is an early or late build, we match the left rear seat to your derivative rather than to the badge
What Are Hyundai Accent Left Rear Seat?
The left rear seat on a Hyundai is the outboard rear bench section, its folding mechanism, latch, release strap and trim. On i20 and Accent hatches we see the release lever snap, or the latch rust after years of boot damp, leaving the seat stuck up.
Signs You Need New Left Rear Seat
Before you order left rear seat for a Accent
Does one left rear seat listing cover every Accent?
No. Ordering left rear seat for a Accent starts with the generation: X3, LC, MC and RB.The Accent ran for so long in South Africa that the same name covers four distinct platforms — the change from the Alpha to the Gamma petrol family is the single biggest fitment dividing line.
Which engine is in my Accent?
SA-market cars were sold with Alpha 1.5/1.6 (X3, LC), Alpha II 1.6 (MC), Gamma 1.6 (RB) and U-line 1.5/1.6 CRDi on selected RB-era derivatives. The code stamped on the block settles it — the badge on the boot does not.
What do you need from me to quote left rear seat?
The trim level, the interior colour, and whether the car has leather or cloth. Trim level drives almost everything inside a Hyundai — seat fabric, console mouldings and switchgear all differ between base and Elite or Executive derivatives of the same car.
In South Africa the Accent is mostly one of the deepest used-parts pools of any Hyundai in the country, which is exactly why sourcing to the correct generation matters more here than on a newer car. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Before You Order Accent Left Rear Seat
Will left rear seat from another Accent fit mine?
Not automatically. The Accent sold in South Africa as X3, LC, MC and RB, and the Accent ran for so long in South Africa that the same name covers four distinct platforms — the change from the Alpha to the Gamma petrol family is the single biggest fitment dividing line. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
How do you check left rear seat actually fits a Accent?
We work backwards from the VIN: generation first, then engine family, then whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within that generation. On the Accent specifically, the Accent ran for so long in South Africa that the same name covers four distinct platforms — the change from the Alpha to the Gamma petrol family is the single biggest fitment dividing line.
Why won't my Hyundai rear seat fold down?
The i20 release lever is notorious for snapping and Accent latch mechanisms rust up from boot damp. Either kills the fold function while the seat otherwise works fine. A latch rebuild kit or a used lever assembly restores it.
How much does a Hyundai rear seat cost to replace?
A used rear seat half section through SA strippers typically runs R1,050-R3,400. Pro Hyundai Spares and our supplier network hold stock for i20, Accent. Send photos of your current trim for a match.
How do you fix a stuck Hyundai rear seat latch?
Pull the seat-back cushion, expose the latch and clean old grease and rust off the pivot. Lubricate with PTFE spray and work the mechanism. If the pawl spring has snapped, fit a new latch module. Forcing it cracks the cable.
Can I buy a used Hyundai rear seat in South Africa?
Yes. Pro Hyundai Spares and our supplier network stock used i20, Accent, Creta and Santa Fe rear seats. Match by VIN, trim colour and whether yours is split-fold or single bench. Get a free quote with photos.
How do I release a Hyundai rear seat that won't unlock?
Reach behind the backrest and find the emergency boot-side release. On i20 and Accent it is a thin metal tab near the boot floor. Work it sideways while pushing the backrest forward. If the cable is snapped, the latch needs stripping.
