  • Sleek, bold design: The design of the taillights contours smoothly with the rest of the exterior of the Chevrolet Equinox, both reducing drag and improving the exterior appearance.

  • All-in-one construction: The taillight assembly includes fittings for both the brake and marker light, as well as the back-up light, ensuring if it does need replacement, youll have new, clear glass covering both lights. Additionally, the flashing brake light acts as the turn signal, utilizing the high visibility of the brake light to provide adequate warnings using the turn signal as well.
