Highlander Tail Light Buying Guide (2011–2016)
Two generations, no crossovers
Highlander tail lamps split cleanly: 2011–2013 (2nd gen) and 2014–2016 (3rd gen, XU50). They do not interchange. The 2014 redesign brought reshaped tail lamps to the 3rd generation.

The 7-seater’s tailgate
The Highlander is the family hauler — third row, cargo, kids, gear loaded in and out through a liftgate that cycles daily. The tail lamps live in the loading zone. Cracked from loading is the classic Highlander tail light story, and the fix is a direct bolt-in.
Incandescent vs. LED
Base trims in both generations used incandescent tail lamps; upper trims got LED. Replacing like-for-like is simplest — match what your trim came with.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will 2012 Highlander tail lights fit my 2015?
No. 2014 was the full redesign — 2nd generation (2011–2013) tail lights do not fit the 3rd generation (2014–2016).
Do Highlander Hybrid tail lights differ?
No — hybrid and gas Highlanders share identical tail lights. Match by model year.
Are these tail lights LED or incandescent?
Both exist. Base trims used incandescent tail lamps and upper trims got LED — match your factory setup when ordering.
Only one side is cracked. Do I need to replace both?
No — order just the side you need. A matched pair is worth considering if the other lamp is faded, so the rear stays even.
How fast is shipping within Canada?
