Nissan 370Z taillights, original taillight

For your inventory at Buy Mustang parts Ltd, the Nissan 370Z (Z34) taillights are a high-demand item, especially because they are often used as an upgrade for earlier models or for replacing units damaged in rear-end collisions.

1. Genuine OEM 370Z Taillight Variations

While the physical shape of the 370Z taillight remained the same from 2009 to 2020, there are two distinct factory finishes that you should categorize for your customers:

• Standard 370Z Chrome Taillights: These feature a bright chrome internal housing. They were standard on the “Base,” “Sport,” and “Touring” trims from 2009 through the early 2010s.

• 370Z Nismo / Heritage Edition “Smoked” Taillights: These are the most desirable OEM units. They feature a darker “smoked” internal housing (dark grey/black chrome) instead of the bright silver. Many owners of older 370Zs buy these to modernize the rear of their car.

2. Technical Identification & Fitment

• Part Numbers (Standard):

  • Right (Passenger): 26550-1EL0A

  • Left (Driver): 26555-1EL0A

• Part Numbers (Nismo/Smoked):

  • Right (Passenger): 26550-6GA0A

  • Left (Driver): 26555-6GA0A

• Full LED Technology: Unlike the 350Z which used a mix of bulbs and LEDs, the 370Z taillights are integrated LED units. If an LED strip fails, the entire unit must be replaced, which makes used, fully-functional units very valuable.

3. Strategic Advice for Buy Mustang parts Ltd

• The “Nismo Upgrade” Bundle: When selling a pair of the smoked Nismo taillights, consider bundling them with the Rear Fog Light (the square light in the center of the rear bumper). Many 370Z owners like to convert that blank plastic square into a functional 4th brake light or fog light at the same time.

• Inspect the Seal: The 370Z is known for water leaking into the trunk through the taillight gaskets. Before listing, always inspect the foam gasket on the back of the light. If it is compressed or brittle, we recommend including a new pair of OEM gaskets to prevent customer complaints about “trunk puddles.”

• Market to the 350Z Crowd? No. Unlike some other parts, 370Z taillights do not fit the 350Z (Z33) without major custom bodywork. Ensure your SEO and descriptions clearly state “Fits Z34 2009-2020 Only.
