Which Tail Light Gasket on R53?

I'm switching out my fasded taillights for the Amber Euro taillights on ECS, I figure i should get new gaskets to go with them but on ECS there are two different gasket for each side with no clear indication which gasket is for which years? I have an 06 R53

There’s a very clear indicator on ECS for determining which gasket fits your 2006 R53.

On the product page for gasket p/n 63216938834, if you enter your particular vehicle details into the drop-down boxes under the “Does this fit my vehicle?” section, you will see that it states “Does Fit,” and is the correct gasket for your vehicle year.

Running your vehicle specs on the product page for the other gasket (p/n 63216916394) results in “Does NOT Fit.”
