What Are Hyundai i20 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.

i20 Left Rear Seat: what actually decides fitment
What changes across the range
The i20 reached South Africa as PB, then GB, then the current BC3, and that alone changes what fits.
The PB and GB are different cars underneath despite the shared badge, so a part listed simply as "i20" is not automatically the right one — the generation code decides it.
Worth knowing: the i20shares its Kappa and Gamma engine families with the Kia Rio.
What we check on left rear seat
- •The generation code, because i20 parts lists split on it
- •The engine family — this i20 was sold with Kappa 1.2, Gamma 1.4 and Kappa 1.0 T-GDi (N Line)
- •The trim level, the interior colour, and whether the car has leather or cloth
- •Whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within its generation
In South Africa the i20 is mostly a high-mileage commuter hatch that spends its life in stop-start city traffic, which is why wear items move faster on an i20 than on almost anything else Hyundai sells here. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai i20 Left Rear Seat FAQs
Will left rear seat from another i20 fit mine?
Not automatically. The i20 sold in South Africa as PB, then GB, then the current BC3, and the PB and GB are different cars underneath despite the shared badge, so a part listed simply as "i20" is not automatically the right one — the generation code decides it. 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 i20 left rear seat?
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 i20 ran as PB, then GB, then the current BC3, so the generation is what narrows the search.
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.
