Buying a used tail light: what to check

  1. Inspect for cracked housings and water stains inside the lens.
  2. Confirm body-mounted vs trunk-mounted. Most vehicles use both and they don't interchange.
  3. LED tail lights are far pricier than bulb versions; verify which your trim uses.
  4. Check the wiring pigtail condition if included.
