I don't believe this is a trunk light. At least it doesn't look like the trunk light in my coupe. Mine is a flatish clear plastic one. This one looks more like a bumper mounted license plate light, although not quite like the ones I have. My Hellas have a thinner plastic lens.
this one looks exactly like the one under my hood - which is the same shape as the new one in my trunk - which you can buy from BMW ... the difference of the new one is that its all clear.
Scott is right on, fits both locations
Same light from an E 24 and dealer available. 63311362711 They are the same for the engine bay as well as the trunk. The trunk light lens should be half silver and the new light I bought was completely clear. I masked mine off and sprayed it with what ever silver I had in a rattle can and it came out as original. The current picture shown in realoem gives the impression it may be 1/2 silver already. Realoem shows the cost at $27.00
i left the trunk all clear - more light in the trunk. i did leave the hood light as half silver so that the light only goes to the inside of the engine compartment. BTW - Steve, i'm assuming you turned your light over.
Hi folks,
Seems to be a bit of confusion regarding the hood and trunk light vs the rear licence plate light.
I'm in (100%) what IS3FIFTY described.
Guess we need to clarify this, as well.
Hard to believe we missed this one before?

That's the original style hood light, we are in agreement.
Neither one of my hood/trunk lights is painted like that, just half beveled, half clear on the lens.
