I have found a site selling 1997 ls400 LED tailights and was wondering if theyd fit my '98. I believe theyre the same size can anyone weigh in?

The inner lights for the trunk will not fit. Only the outer lights will work.
98-00 have longer trunk lights than 95-97

i'm happy to get closure on this as i always felt the 95-97 lights did look a little bit shorter than 98 but that was always just a hunchOriginally Posted by CELSI0R

yeah 95-97 are shorter on the trunk lid only.
they also have a different fluted diffuser design than the 98-00 which are more modern looking in my opinion too!

You can throw off fellow LS400 owners by using the 95-97 tails and swapping the trunk lid. 
Although that is partially given away by the center headrest which the 95-97 don't have.
