Question 2011 Tail Lights

I love the look of the tail lights on the newer mustangs. I believe they change them for the 2011 model. I have a 2010 - would the lights fit on the 10? Thanks

2010-2012 are the same taillights. 2013+ will fit, but you will have a gap under the taillights because the shape is slightly different. search in these forums and you should see several discussions about this.

Oh okay - I thought they changed in 2011, thanks for the info. I don't want a gap so I guess I'll stick with what I have.

from the pics I see that small gap is very small and really wouldnt notice it unless looking for it. If your car is black probably never even see it

Thanks, maybe I'll check with Ford and see what they say. My card is black so if the gap is very small and not noticeable, I may go with them.

The gap is not that bad, and I love the look of the '13s over the '11 OEM ones so I am fine. If it bugs you that much get the '13 lights and a '13 bumper and that will take care of the gap.

Id love to get the 13 lights..They are probably the best looking tail lights EVER of any car. But I cant see paying $750+ for them now hopefully they will drop in price over the next year
