Any Difference with 2015-2017 and 2018+ Tail Lights

[Party Rock]

I have a 2019 Mustang GT and need to replace only one of my tail lights. However, I see a lot of 2015-2017 tail lights on the used market compared to the 2018+. Is there any difference with the 2015-2017 tail lights and 2018+ tail lights?

1. Any differences cosmetic wise? For example, are they angled different?
2. Any differences with the wiring? For example, a 2015-2017 tail light will plug right into a 2018+ Mustang?

Thank you in advance for your help!

They're curved a bit, but they are completely interchangeable (aside from obvious wiring difference for actual Euro models).

edit » read a bit more clearly and saw you're needing just one. You want them to match, so either get two 15-17 tails or pick up one 18+ light.

The 15-17 Tail lights are like ||| |||
the 18+ tail lights are like ((( )))


So you'd need to get what ever matches. other wise there is on difference.

Differences already noted multiple times, and they’re spot on. Tail light not covered under warranty anymore? I personally like the 18 curved style more than 15-17, just bought a pair from another member.

One day when I was cleaning the car, I happened to notice a few one inch long cracks on the tail light. I'm thinking some kind of object struck it hard when it was parked. I doubt that would fall under warranty.

I built it one piece at a time
And it didn't cost me a dime

Correct you are. That’s unfortunate.

Were they plug and play? I was lead to believe in another thread that they required a different kind of harness/plug

100 percent plug and play. Nothing additional needed going from OEM 18 to my 17 at least.
