Hi Mini owners,
I would like to ask a quick question for replacing taillights. I owned 03 mini S and someone broke my taillights (red color, yello on middle). So, I found 05 mini taillights (red color, white dot on bottom) for good price. Is this going to be a direct fit? or should I just get one same as my previous one?

Thank you for your help.

 

The 05 taillight will be physically a direct fit, and I think the connector is also compatible. The new reverse light (the bottom white dot) won't work but you can splice in the reverse signal to give yourself some nice additional backup lighting.

 

RKW is correct.

I think you also need to move one of the wires in the connector to make the light work correctly.

 

Thank you guys for great help
