Hyundai H1 Hood
Hood for the Hyundai H1 — new, used and aftermarket stock, quoted once we know which H1 you are running
What Are Hyundai H1 Hood?
The bonnet is the steel or alloy panel covering your Hyundai engine bay, hinged at the windscreen edge with a safety catch at the front. We see Accent release cables stretch and snap, leaving the bonnet jammed shut and we see i20 bonnets dented by hail or rear-enders.
Signs You Need New Hood
H1 generations and hood — the short version
Ordering hood for a H1 starts with the generation: the original Starex, then the TQ iLoad, iMax and Grand Starex.Panel van, bus and people-mover bodies on the same TQ base take different rear-end, glass and trim parts, so tell us the body style, not just the model.
Engine families fitted to the SA-market H1:
Facelifts within a single Hyundai generation changed bumpers, lamps and grilles without changing the model name, and the colour code on the door jamb matters as much as the part itself.
Send us the generation code, whether the car is pre- or post-facelift, and the paint code with your enquiry and we will confirm the correct hood against your car before anything is dispatched.
In South Africa the H1 is mostly shuttle, tour and staff-transport work, which means very high annual mileage and a strong bias towards diesel injection, turbo and clutch components. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai H1 Hood FAQs
Will hood from another H1 fit mine?
Not automatically. The H1 sold in South Africa as the original Starex, then the TQ iLoad, iMax and Grand Starex, and panel van, bus and people-mover bodies on the same TQ base take different rear-end, glass and trim parts, so tell us the body style, not just the model. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
What should I send you when asking about H1 hood?
The VIN is the single most useful thing — a photo of the plate is fine. Failing that, the generation code and the engine code off the block. The H1 ran as the original Starex, then the TQ iLoad, iMax and Grand Starex, so the generation is what narrows the search.

Why won't my Hyundai bonnet open?
The release cable has either stretched, seized, or snapped at the latch end. On higher-mileage cars it is a common failure. Pulling harder just makes it worse. A correct fix involves accessing the latch from underneath through the grille.
How much does it cost to replace a Hyundai bonnet?
A used bonnet plus respray typically runs R2,800-R7,600 fitted for i20, Accent. A new aftermarket panel costs more. Colour-matched used panels from Pro Hyundai Spares save weeks of painting and sanding.
How do I fix a stuck Hyundai bonnet release cable?
Pop the grille, reach the latch with a long-reach screwdriver and trip the pawl manually. Replace the cable and latch together, because cables usually break because the latch pivot seized first and needs cleaning too.
