What are you referring to as the "1st Gen"? I'm asking because the U.S. "1st Gen" is different from the ones around the world.

Here's a link that shows the Yaris generations:

If you're referring to the 2007-2011 as the "1st Gen" (US), that generation actually shares the same axle frame as the "2nd Gen" (2012-2018) US, which some of us here are sought-after, the SE model at least, for the rear disc conversion. The US 3rd Gen were actually Mazda 2 based models.

I can only speak of the 1st gen here in The States. As for as compatibility between the US first and 2nd gen I was basing that on pictures and part numbers
