Aftermarket Led Tail Lights

[FlawedLegacy]

^^ Was just about to say everything in this post.... besides the fact i have not bought replacements, but the years don't match up and i've never seen whatever that is in back on any others.

Also, from the picture, whatever that is jutting out from the back side of those lights, it's NOT going to fit in your '09/'10 -- I JUST replaced my lights 4 days ago... and that piece is non-existent. If it had been there, there's no way it would have fit on my car.

Keep in mind that our 10th gen Corolla came out a couple years earlier in other parts of the world. I believe it was 07 in Europe, 08 in Asia & 09 in North America.

I hate to be argumentative... however, I'm more than "pretty sure" that they wont fit. Look at the MARS photo... and then scroll up in this thread to the pics water-marked "revotec" (up about 12 or 13 posts, and also in the OP). and compare the two models.

Notice that the Revotec ones are contoured for flush fit against the body of the car. The Mars ones have that extra piece sticking out of the back

The Revotec ones are the identical tail lights I JUST installed only a few days ago -- and you wont see that same piece sticking out the back-view of the revotec pic, like you do on that of the MARS model: and for good reason... because whatever that piece is jutting out from the back of the MARS model will pretty much guarantee that they WON'T fit properly on a 10th-gen Corolla.

It doesnt matter what the shape the perimiter of the lenses are... or what years the 10th gen design came out in other countries... fact remains that if that piece does in fact exist on the back of the MARS model, then it wont fit on the car. There's no hole in the body for that piece to insert into -- at least not on the North American model.

The Mars site is priced in Australian dollars, so it's quite possible they are for Eastern models... which might be the difference.

I'm only making the suggestion before someone throws down $300 for lights that don't appear to fit properly, and whose description seems ambiguous.

I didnt order them, just saw them under "led tail lights" and thought they might fit. But they are kinda the style i want to get, all LED, not just brake and running light.
