Does anybody know if the 06 CLK500 rear stock tail lights work on the 04 CLK500. I dont wanna buy it and then find out that it doesnt work. So please help you guys. Thanks

 

where are you getting them from?

 

a dealership, or a website that sells stock parts

 

The 06 tail lights will work just fine the dealer tried to sell me those to update my 03 CLK55. However, they new tail lights look the same as the tail lights on the Toyota Camry. Look at the Camry tail lights, nothing impressive or distinctive about the new tail lights.

The CLK tail lights are most distinctive, there are no others like them. Plus the turn signals flash orange vice red like the new tail lights. Guess I like being different from everyone else.

 

i like the older tails a lot more.

 

I love the older taillights. the new ones definitley look like a Camry taillight!

The older ones have that cool design and glow red when signaling.

 

Go look at the tail lights of a Dodge Neon. I love the tail lights I have now, cuz i smoked them, but recently i got pulled over by a cop and now I can either replace the lights with the same thing(not smoked) or get the new ones. I want the new ones. Anyone else no if they fit for sure on an 03 or 04 CLK500?

 

I asked to Calstar today. They said taillight fit physically but they are not sure about the electronics and the wire work

 

Hold up a a second, which ones are the newer style? I have a 2003 and my tail lights look like the picture on the right in the OP. However, those tails look "newer" to me.

 

typically the 03's came with the lights that look like the ones on the bottom display pictures, and like mine...my mom has an 04 CLK and hers even look like mine, i dont remember seeing the lights on the top pic. until 05...

 

older tail lights for the win!

 

I AM NOT ASKING WHICH DO YOU THINK LOOKS BETTER. I am asking if the new tail lights fit an 03 clk500.

 

Holy crap, relax.

m.e.g. already answered your question.

 

i dont think they fit in the quater panel ?

 

I personally like the older tail light better when the 2006 model came out but I changed my mind since when I bought my diamond silver 2006 Clk 500 Cabriolet. The new tail like look much better then the old one. As for the electrical part, it should be the same. I remember when I changed one of the bulb, I pull out the whole electrical panel with all the bulbs in it. If your panel with all the bulbs in it then it the same. Anyway, you can alway return it if it does not fit. It not an electrical part, it just the tail light housing and so you can return it. Too bad, I don't have a digital camera so I can take some pictures for you. Btw, mine tail light now look even better with tinted (tinted the white part only) like the older AMG tinted tail light.
