Broken rear light - just replace lens?

[Mistuk]

Some kind individual has "connected" with my rear light and broken / cracked it. It's only the lens that seems to be broken - can this easily be related or do I have to replace the whole unit? I've seen some aftermarket "lenses" on eBay etc - but don't know how easy they are to fit?

many forum users have swapped out their T6 lights for T6.1 upgrades or full LED upgrades such as THQ ones etc so you might be able to pick up an old pair pretty cheap in the forsale/wanted section?

Thanks. Are they easy to replace?

I’ve looked at whether the lens can be replaced before, it’s a sealed unit. It is probably possibly to break the seal and re-work.
As mentioned earlier there are secondhand lights available, just make sure that the part number matches if you replacing one unit as there are different wiring configurations.
Have a search tail lights are well covered.

Yes, just the lenses. You can buy them for around £40-60 from the usual online places

The replacement ‘lens’ you’re looking at is a whole replacement unit. The lens itself would be the section that’s broken, and as @DXX says are a non-serviceable part, but can be parted and resealed with time and care.

Here are some for sale on the forum - they’ll likely be genuine.

Sold - Halogen Tailgate Tail Lights. £50

I have for sale a set of oem tailgate rear lights. They have been removed from my T6 due to upgraded lights. They are in mint condition as my van has only done 26k miles These are all boxed up ready to go. So let’s say £180 inc postage. Many thanks. Ron

Sold - Halogen Tailgate Tail lights (2019) £60

Having recently upgraded to some smoked rear tail lights on my 2019 T30, I no longer require the factory fitted original rear lights. These are for the tailgate T6 and are the halogen model. Both lights work as normal and recently passed MOT however there is a small crack in the drivers side...

I have on for sale. I damaged the drivers side one with a trailer but the passenger side one’s going spare.
