Broken tail light

[Paulel]

My wife managed to back her Volvo into my 2014 E220 cabriolet, braking the rear tail light. I can’t find anything on eBay for my car but I’m sure the lights from other models would fit. Does anyone know if that is the case?

Just buy oe, I know there expensive but you know it’ll fit and the red lense won’t look pink when the lights are on.

Ok that’s a possibility but I was hoping to get something a bit cheaper. So far I’ve only found Europart and that cost £324!

I would have thought any light from a facelift Cabriolet or Coupe (A207/C207) would fit as they are all the same but the Saloon and Estate are defintiely different.

Thanks, it looks like I’m not going have to spend so much money after all. I think I was being too car specific when I looked on eBay

I don’t have any idea but it’s sure to be more than Europart.

Thanks for that dreamer. I did try this company last week but even though I put in all the details of my car it just came up with a load of rectangular lights for vans or trucks. I’ve tried again with your link and I found one for my car amongst the rectangular ones. I’ve sent them an enquiry with my vin just to make sure it’s the right one.

If you go aftermarket - as mentioned there is a risk that the lens colours may differ as star mentions.
Although you may save a few quid in the grand scheme of things, if the lenses are odd you will hate looking at it.
Compare the aftermarket in the light to your current and if you are not happy take it back.
At the end of the day your call.

Thanks for the heads up on the colour variation in the foreign lights. I eventually found a new genuine MB item on eBay for £220

Good stuff. Get it fitted and let us know how you get on!

Got my brand new M B tail light from eBay on Thursday and fitted it yesterday, which was a real pig of a job, but I’m pleased with the result. All I have to do now is get the area of scratches resprayed!

Good job!!!
Happy dance

Hey
I'm really hoping you can help me. My wife's 2013 Cabriolet right rear light lens is broken. I picked up a replacement on Ebay but can't for the live of me figure out how to get to old one off. From what I can see, there are 3 bolts. I can get at the front 2 (just) but the 3rd is impossible. How did you manage it?
