OEM Part Number: confirm via VIN — aftermarket LH Valeo 450914 / RH Valeo 450915

Accuracy note: Covers the Vauxhall Mokka (2012-2019) 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	Prasco OP7004923 (halogen H7/HB3, motor); Prasco OP7024904 (halogen HB3/H7, LED DRL, motor); Hella 1LR 010 117-211 (halogen H7/H1, no motor); Magneti Marelli 710301214203 (halogen H7/H1, motor); Magneti Marelli 710301262203 (halogen, motor); Magneti Marelli 710301263207 (halogen, motor)
Driver's side (RH / offside) headlight — aftermarket	Prasco OP7024903 (halogen HB3/H7, LED DRL, motor); Hella 1LR 010 117-221 (halogen H7/H1, no motor); Magneti Marelli 710301214204 (halogen H7/H1, motor); Magneti Marelli 710301263208 (halogen, motor); Valeo 450915 (halogen with DRL bulb); Hella 1ZT 009 631-321 (bi-xenon D1S with H11, DRL)

Genuine (OE) numbers quoted	None quoted in catalogue listings — order genuine units against your VIN
Fitment notes	The Mokka-specific units are the Prasco OP70xx references, which take an HB3 main beam; the Hella, Magneti Marelli and Valeo units shown alongside them should be matched to the car by trim.

A Genuinely Important UK Rule Worth Knowing Before You Buy — Vauxhall Mokka Headlights

If your Mokka 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.

Vauxhall Mokka Headlights: What It Does

The Vauxhall Mokka's headlight unit job is positioning the main and dipped beam bulbs (or LED/matrix modules on higher trims) to light the road without dazzling oncoming drivers. That housing frequently also contains the daytime running light and front indicator, which is exactly why part numbers and repairs here can get complicated.

Vauxhall Mokka Headlights: Generations, Derivatives & Headlight Type

Design/GS trims	Full LED system (headlights, DRLs, indicators and tail lights) comes as standard on the current generation
Ultimate Nav/Launch Edition	Genuine IntelliLux LED Matrix headlights come as standard on these specific trims — using 14 individual LEDs per unit (fewer than the Insignia's 84, reflecting the smaller car's simpler system), automatically switching to main beam above 30mph outside urban areas and continuously adapting the beam pattern to road conditions
