Common Questions

When does a trunk lid tail light need to be replaced?
A cracked or broken lens lets moisture and dirt in, which can lead to corrosion in the wiring and contacts. Moisture buildup inside the lens is a sign that the housing seal or lens has failed.

Does the engine in my X3 change which light I need?
No. BMW uses this same part number on every F25 X3 engine variant, from the N20 four-cylinder to the N55 and N57 six-cylinders.

Does this light work on the right side?
No, it is built for the left side of the trunk lid only.
