Front Door Shell (Left) for BYD Qin PLUS, OE 12522161-00

The left hand front door is the driver's door on a right hand drive car. Sides on this site are named as the driver sees them, looking out over the bonnet, and not as you see them standing in front of the car. The right hand shell is a separate listing under a different OE number. Before ordering, open the door you intend to replace, find the number on the shell if it can still be read, and check it against 12522161-00. If the door is damaged beyond reading, send us photographs through the quote route on this page.

Two versions of this shell are shown here. The Original/Genuine one is the BYD part, the shell the factory supplies for this OE number. The Aftermarket one is made by a different manufacturer to fit the same aperture and it carries its own price here. The difference between them is who made the panel rather than which car it goes on, since both match this same OE number. If the car is on an insurance claim, check which version the insurer will accept before choosing, and confirm the fitment table on this page for your model.

One panel, two references. This shell is listed under OE number 12522161-00, and HAD-6101010/70 is used for it as an alternative. Whichever of those your supplier or body shop quoted, both point here. So if the number you were given does not match the one at the top of this page, compare it with the second before assuming a mistake has been made. If it matches neither, send it through the quote route on this page with a photograph of the old part and its label and we will identify it properly rather than let a large panel be ordered on the wrong reference.

Two numbers to plan around. Delivery time is confirmed with your quote. It is a large panel on a freight service, so a date is not something to promise a customer on the near end of that window. Get the order in before the car goes into the shop rather than while it is sitting stripped. Tell us any fixed date at the point of order and we will be straight with you about it.

On a pallet. The packaging details are shown on this page. Freight delivery means a larger vehicle, a need for clear access at the address and somebody available to take the pallet in. A residential street with parking restrictions is the wrong destination for this one. Send it to the body shop doing the work if you can, and confirm with them beforehand that they are able to receive freight.

Metal is the material stated for this shell, and no colour is given for it, so paint and finishing to match your car are part of the work. That is a job for a paint shop with a booth rather than a home garage. The metal construction is also why the packed weight lands in the band it does and why the panel travels on freight. Give your painter the packed size from this page so they can plan the space.
