I need a tail light assembly!

[tnugentfl]

A person pressure washing my home cracked my drivers side tail light on my '23 Lariat Lightning. Looks like these things are a fortune and I don't see one on ebay. Anyone have a source to order an OEM taillight?

Just had mine replaced. The part alone was $2400. Apparently the electronics is so integrated you cannot just but the lens. Or at least that's what happens when the body shop knows insurance is paying.

Sorry, that's probably not helpful.

You may just have to wait it out on eBay if you can. Depends on the severity of the crack or if you could patch it temporarily. I eventually found a good deal there. Mine had a very minor crack (and I garage it) so I could wait.

Make sure you know there are two versions. One for your Lariat (and Plat.) and another one for the Pro/XLT. Has to do with the reverse lights and they are not interchangeable (your Lariat tailgate will smash an XLT tail light).

You should look in to making a claim against the contractors insurance if you can prove they did it, or get them to admit they did it, then they should be paying for the repair.

Got hit with hail and it shattered the passenger side brake light and same thing, whole assembly required listed at $2,400 for just parts.

Crazy experience for a plastic piece. The contractor is covering it out of pocket. He is a friend, trying to find something reasonable.

Very much changes the context. Keep looking on Ebay, hopefully one will come up. I think if you swap the BLIS sensors you can escape the worst of the problems you might encounter. Otherwise you might also need to pay a service tech to "reprogram" the sensor to work with your truck.
