What Are Hyundai Elantra Left Rear Door?
The left rear door on a Hyundai is the complete shell, hinge set, window mech and trim on the passenger-side rear. We see Tucson, H100 and H1 central locking fail on rear doors and the wiring loom flex between B-pillar and door breaks from constant opening.

Elantra Left Rear Door: what actually decides fitment
Sold here across J2 Avante, XD, HD, MD and AD, the Elantra is not one car for parts purposes — it is several.Early SA cars wear the Avante name and later ones the Elantra badge for what is effectively the same lineage — the generation code, not the badge, is what a parts desk works from.
- 1
Find the generation code on your Elantra — it appears on the VIN plate and on the original registration paperwork.
- 2
Confirm the engine family. The Elantra ran Alpha 1.6 (XD), Gamma 1.6 (HD), Nu 1.8 (MD) and Nu 2.0 (AD) in this market.

Send both to us with the left rear door you are after , along with the generation code, whether the car is pre- or post-facelift, and the paint code. We match it before we quote, not after.
Sourcing note: the Elantraa platform relative of the Kia Cerato through several generations — which widens where we can look when local stock is thin.
In South Africa the Elantra is mostly a compact sedan bought by long-distance commuters, so highway mileage accumulates fast and driveline wear tends to run ahead of the visual condition. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai Elantra Left Rear Door — Questions We Get Asked
Will left rear door from another Elantra fit mine?
Not automatically. The Elantra sold in South Africa as J2 Avante, XD, HD, MD and AD, and early SA cars wear the Avante name and later ones the Elantra badge for what is effectively the same lineage — the generation code, not the badge, is what a parts desk works from. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
Which engines did the South African Elantra come with?
SA-market cars ran Alpha 1.6 (XD), Gamma 1.6 (HD), Nu 1.8 (MD), Nu 2.0 (AD). The code stamped on the block is what we work from — the badge on the boot is not reliable on its own.
How much does a Hyundai rear door cost to replace?
Used rear doors through SA strippers typically run R1,900-R7,300 depending on model, colour and condition. Pro Hyundai Spares and our supplier network stock used i20, Accent and Creta rear doors.
Why won't my Hyundai rear door open or close?
The most common cause is a seized latch or a broken door-harness wire between the B-pillar and door, which kills central locking and window drop. Stripping the door card usually finds snapped copper inside the rubber boot.
Can I get a used Hyundai rear door in South Africa?
Yes. Pro Hyundai Spares carries used rear doors for i20, Accent, Creta and Santa Fe, colour-matched where possible. Send your VIN, side and colour code and we will quote an exact match.
What causes Hyundai central locking to fail on the rear doors?
On Tucson, H100 and H1, the flexible wire loom between the B-pillar and door fatigues and snaps from thousands of open-close cycles. Rear doors fail before fronts because fewer wires mean less redundancy. A loom repair fixes it permanently.
How do I fix a stuck Hyundai rear door latch?
Remove the door card, unbolt the latch through the outer shell access and unplug its connector. A new latch kit is under R1,000 used. Spraying WD40 into the old one is a short-term fix only, because the internal pawl is usually cracked.
