Renault Twingo II 2007-2014 LH Front Door Hinge Pair 804012270R 804211797R
Renault Twingo II 2007–2014
Front Left Door Hinge Pair
804012270R • 804211797R
This listing is for the FRONT LEFT DOOR HINGE PAIR. On a normal UK right-hand-drive Renault Twingo II this is the front passenger-side door.
The safest way to order is to compare the photographs, mounting design and reference numbers with the parts removed from your vehicle. If there is any uncertainty, send your 17-character VIN through eBay Messages before purchasing and fitment can be checked.
VEHICLE COMPATIBILITY
| Make | Model | Platform | Body | Production | Position |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Renault | Twingo II | CN0 / X44 | 3-Door Hatchback | 03/2007–09/2014 | Front Left |
Production dates are more accurate than registration year alone. A vehicle registered later may have been manufactured earlier. VIN verification is recommended where there is any uncertainty.
Twingo II Applications
Catalogue applications for this hinge family include Twingo II CN0 variants using the 1.2 petrol, 1.2 16V, 1.2 TCe/Turbo, 1.5 dCi and 1.6 RS powertrains within the applicable production period.
Engine size alone must NOT be used to establish compatibility. Match the reference number, physical hinge design and vehicle VIN where required.
✕ DO NOT ORDER FOR
- Renault Twingo I / Mk1
- Renault Twingo III / Mk3
- Front right / UK driver's-side door where the opposite hinge is required
- Any vehicle where the hinge shape or mounting pattern differs
- Any vehicle requiring different reference numbers
Renault Wind: individual hinge reference 804012270R is catalogued for some Wind applications, but this complete two-hinge set should NOT be assumed to fit a Wind without VIN/reference verification.
CORRECT VEHICLE REFERENCE
Reference vehicle shown: Renault Twingo II 3-door. Image is for model identification only; trim, colour, wheels and facelift specification can vary.
WHERE ARE THESE HINGES FITTED?
The hinges are mounted between the front-left door and the A-pillar/body structure. Together, the upper and lower hinges support the weight of the door and establish its opening axis and alignment.
↑ Reference: front-left door / A-pillar hinge mounting area
Reference photographs illustrate the component type and installation area. Always use the actual listing photographs to assess the exact used item supplied.
WHAT DOES THE PART DO?
Door hinges are structural moving joints. They carry the door's weight, allow it to pivot between open and closed positions and help maintain the correct relationship between the door, latch, striker, weather seals and surrounding body panels.
Excessive hinge wear or distortion can allow the door to drop out of alignment. Correct hinge geometry is therefore important for closing, sealing and body-panel alignment.
COMMON SYMPTOMS OF WORN OR DAMAGED HINGES
- Front door visibly drops when opened
- Door requires lifting or excessive force to close
- Uneven panel gaps around the door
- Latch and striker no longer align correctly
- Door catches against the sill, wing or surrounding bodywork
- Excessive movement at the hinge pivot
- Clicking, knocking or movement when lifting the open door
- Wind noise or water ingress caused by poor door alignment
- Hinge distortion following accident or door damage
Similar symptoms can also be caused by structural damage, striker misalignment or other door components, so diagnosis should be completed before parts are replaced.

WHY CHOOSE AN ORIGINAL USED VEHICLE PART?
✓ Designed around the vehicle manufacturer's original mounting geometry.
✓ Correct physical construction can be checked against the removed component.
✓ Reusing serviceable components reduces demand for newly manufactured replacement parts.
✓ Used original components can represent a substantial saving compared with buying the equivalent part new.
✓ For selected components, savings can be as much as approximately 70% compared with new replacement pricing.
Savings vary by component, availability and current new-part pricing.
