OEM Part Number: confirm via VIN — aftermarket LH Valeo 045432 / RH Valeo 045433

Accuracy note: Covers the Peugeot 108 (2014-) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. Headlights are sold by side (passenger / nearside = LH, driver's / offside = RH on a UK car) and by lamp type — halogen, xenon (D1S / D3S) and LED or full-LED units are not interchangeable, and DRL, cornering and levelling options change the part number again. The references below are UK aftermarket catalogue listings for this generation, labelled by brand; genuine numbers are shown only where a listing quotes one. Check the lamp type and traffic side (UK right-hand-traffic units, not LHD) against your VIN, and expect xenon / LED and adaptive units to need levelling adjustment or coding after fitting.

Passenger side (LH / nearside) headlight — aftermarket	Valeo 045432 (LED with DRL, motor not included, original part); Van Wezel 4022961 (halogen HIR2 with LED DRL, no motor); Van Wezel 4022961V (halogen HIR2 with LED DRL, OES quality); Prasco PG2064904 (LED, HIR2, motor not included); Diederichs 4212081 (HIR2 with LED DRL, W5W, PY21W); Alkar 2741256 (LED, HIR2, PY21W, electric)
Driver's side (RH / offside) headlight — aftermarket	Valeo 045433 (LED with DRL, motor not included, original part); Van Wezel 4022962 (halogen HIR2 with LED DRL, no motor); Van Wezel 4022962V (halogen HIR2 with LED DRL, OES quality); Prasco PG2064903 (LED, HIR2, PY21W); Johns 57 08 10 (halogen HIR2 with LED DRL); Alkar 2742256 (LED, HIR2, PY21W, electric)

Genuine (OE) numbers quoted	None quoted in catalogue listings — order genuine units against your VIN
Fitment notes	Most listed units are HIR2 with an LED DRL; some listings (H7/H1 types such as Abakus 552-1124) carry earlier-model years, so check fit.

A Genuinely Important UK Rule Worth Knowing Before You Buy — Peugeot 108 Headlights

If your 108 has factory-fitted halogen headlamp housings, converting them to fit LED bulbs is treated as a definite MOT failure under the current inspection manual — this isn't a grey area or a minor advisory, since a housing designed for halogen doesn't distribute an LED bulb's light output correctly, which can genuinely dazzle oncoming drivers. If you want a genuine LED upgrade, the correct route is a complete headlight unit designed for LED from the factory, not a bulb swap into an existing halogen housing.

Before you buy: matrix LED, adaptive, and cornering headlight systems often require electronic coding to the car after a unit swap, even for a genuine like-for-like replacement — a headlight that isn't recognised by the car's electronics can trigger warning lights or fail to auto-level correctly. Check whether your specific trim has one of these systems before assuming a straightforward bulb-in, bulb-out job.

Peugeot 108 Headlights: What It Does

On the Peugeot 108, the main and dipped beams, whether conventional bulbs or LED/matrix modules on higher trims, sit inside the headlight unit at an angle calculated to illuminate the road without dazzling other drivers. Many modern units also combine the daytime running light and indicator into that same housing, adding a layer of complexity to both part numbers and repairs.
