BYD SEALION 6 Parts Catalog: Common Spare Parts and OE Numbers
The BYD SEALION 6 spare parts workshops order most, grouped by category, and how OE numbers and the VIN pin down the exact part for each car before it ships.
The SEALION 6 parts that workshops order most are front-end body parts, headlights, mirrors, brake pads and discs, suspension arms and routine service items. Each one has an OE number, and the VIN tells us which version fits a given car.
What kind of vehicle is the SEALION 6?
The SEALION 6 is BYD's mid-size plug-in hybrid SUV. It pairs a 1.5-litre petrol engine with BYD's DM-i electric drive. In Europe the same vehicle is sold as the SEAL U DM-i, so many body and lighting parts are shared between the two names.
It is built for left-hand-drive and right-hand-drive markets, and some countries get front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions. That mix is why one model name can cover several different part numbers for the same position.
Which SEALION 6 parts are ordered most often?
Most orders fall into a handful of groups. The table shows the usual parts in each one and the detail that changes the part number.
| Category | Typical parts | What changes the part |
|---|---|---|
| Body parts | Hood, front fenders, wheel-arch trims, side skirts, tailgate | Side (left or right), model year |
| Bumpers | Bumper covers, lower grilles, beams, absorbers, brackets, sensor holders | SEALION 6 vs battery-electric SEAL U, sensor fitment |
| Lighting | LED headlights, tail light sections, fog and reflector lamps | Side, LHD or RHD beam pattern |
| Mirrors | Mirror assemblies, glass, caps, turn-signal lamps, folding motors | Side, camera or no camera |
| Brake parts | Front and rear pads, discs, calipers, hoses, wheel-speed sensors | Axle, FWD or AWD |
| Suspension | Control arms, shocks, springs, stabilizer links, hubs, bearings | FWD or AWD |
| Maintenance | Oil filter, engine air filter, spark plugs, cabin filter, wipers | Engine and service interval |
Because the SEALION 6 has a petrol engine, it needs engine service parts that a battery-electric SEAL U does not. It also has hybrid electrical and cooling parts, so the parts list is longer than for a pure EV.
How do OE numbers identify a SEALION 6 part?
An OE number is the code the vehicle maker gives one specific part. It is more precise than a description like "front bumper". Two bumpers that look the same can carry different OE numbers because of sensor holes, trim level or model year.
- Left and right parts always have separate numbers.
- A change in fitment, such as a camera in the mirror, usually means a new number.
- Updated parts can replace older numbers. We check which number is current.
- Replacement (aftermarket) parts are cross-referenced to the OE number they replace.
We do not publish OE numbers on this site. Numbers change with market, year and trim, and a list taken out of context leads to wrong orders. Send us the VIN and we confirm the number for your car.
Why does the VIN matter as much as the OE number?
The OE number tells us what part was on the car. The VIN tells us how the car was built: steering side, drive layout, trim and production period. With both, we can confirm the part and spot a newer superseding number if there is one.
If you have only one, send that. A VIN alone is usually enough to find the right number. An OE number alone works too, but we may ask for the steering side or a photo to rule out a variant.

OEM (genuine) parts are the same as the factory part. Replacement parts are made to fit and work the same way, often at a lower cost. Many buyers mix both in one order: genuine for lighting and safety items, replacement for panels, filters and trims.
Body panels ship unpainted in primer, so your body shop can match the original colour. We send photos of the parts and the packing before dispatch, whichever option you choose.
