W211 3rd Brake Light Replacement

My 3rd brake light on my 08 E320 Cdi has gone bum.
I'm trying to replace it and was wondering if there is an actual difference between the lights associated with these two part numbers
2118201456
2118201556

Or can I just buy either and they'll fit.

Thanks

I believe it is a LED light, so it should out live the car. I would make sure none of the wires are broke where the trunk opens. This is a common issue.

One has about 20 LED's, the other has about 10. I purchased the 20 LED one, because I preferred it, both should fit though.

On another note, I also thought my 3rd brake light went out. It ended up being a torn wire in the trunk (common issue). Might want to look at your wires first, because LED's will outlast your life time.

Also, if you are buying ebay/aftermarket 3rd brake light I suggest (Winjet CBWJ-0634-R). If you can find it. Quality light for cheap.

Thanks guys.

Will check those wires. If, all is well, I'll see about that aftermarket light.

Glad to hear they're the same fit
