Need new taillight, looking for options.

[Jack Sibur]

I backed into our mailbox today and smashed my left taillight. I can't believe I did, but I did.

The truck has Blind Spot Indicators.

What are my options to fix this taillight? If I buy a new assembly with BLIS module, will it need programmed or calibrated?

I would check with junk yards and/or used parts sellers online first.

Maybe Dave will have one soon.

One option is to go aftermaket, maybe some Anzousa's?

I wonder if I could use my BLIS module in an OEM non BLIS tail light. Similar to what is done with the Anzousa's?

Contact AZscorpion..........think he has a couple OEM for sale!

Maybe Dave will have one soon.

I didn’t understand this reference at first - but I just read Dave’s adventure. Now I get it?

I chipped the right one on my truck and have been looking at the Anzo. New OEM are $750!

If you go Anzo I’ll buy your right one for the right price.

I could also consider selling you my left and buy the Anzo

I didn’t think to ask Dave but may see if he’s able to get the right and sell it to me.

BLIS module has to be programmed to VIN. Previously programmed modules are bricked

 

[Jthomp19]

Lkq online.com has them occasionally.
they are about 600$ used from salvaged rangers with blind spot. Without they are 199.

At that price, red taillight tape is looking pretty tempting.

The bliss modules are removable and can be swapped out. Just need the light.

I haven’t seen where you can just buy the lens without the blis module. Maybe I’m a dummy!

I had some damage in that exact spot from a tree branch I hit backing up on a trail. Decided to fill the hole with body filler to waterproof it and put some red vinyl wrap material over it. Looks fine now and it's hardly noticeable, unless you're looking for it. Now I'm just waiting until I break it again or hit the other one to replace them...

 

[GitRDone]

That looks like a clean break, possible to glue piece(s) back in or did it shatter?

Lamp assembly used to come with the BLIS module but now that are separate items.

KB3Z-13405-G Left tail light ($1083.33)
KB3Z-14C689-B BLIS module ($603.33)

Also not included are the brackets and screws for the BLIS module...

KB3Z-14D189-A Bracket ($84.50)
W505564 Bolt ($4.13)

Prices may have changed since last September but this is what my insurance paid....

OP should be able to just buy the lamp assembly and switch everything over.
