Yes, these should fit. Many people upgrade to these rear lenses if they have a 92-96 model W140. That is a great price too!

The lights will fit, but you will need to replace the strip that extends from one tailight to the other located below the trunk lid. The one from your 1993 will not fit with the newer lights.

i dont know if the 95-99 lights will fit. because if you look at the trunk lid on the 93, it has a sharp corner, but on the 95-99, the corner is rounded.
