Toyota Aygo Tail Lights: Specs, Fitment & Common Faults

OEM Part Number: confirm via VIN — tail light (aftermarket) Magneti Marelli 714081311011

Accuracy note: Covers the Toyota Aygo (2014-2021) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. Tail lights are handed (left and right are different parts) and the right one depends on whether your car has bulb or LED units, whether the cluster comes with its bulb holder, the body style and the facelift date. The references below are UK aftermarket catalogue listings for this generation, labelled by brand with the fitment details the catalogue gives, and shown for the left-hand light with its right-hand pair where the catalogue names one. Carmakers rarely publish the genuine number against these, so order a genuine light against your VIN if you want a guaranteed match; if the unit on your car has a separate inner light on the tailgate, that is sold as its own part.

A Genuinely Important Warning Worth Knowing Before Attempting a DIY Fix — Toyota Aygo Tail Lights

Tail lights have small, deliberate vent holes built in specifically for pressure balance — never block or seal these, even if it seems like a sensible way to keep moisture out, since doing so can cause severe deformation or cracking of the housing instead. Light fogging that clears within a few hours, particularly after a wash or temperature change, is normal physics rather than a fault; only persistent water pooling or corrosion on the internal reflector genuinely needs addressing.

A genuinely useful, documented drying technique worth knowing: if you do need to dry out a genuinely wet tail light, place the light inside a cardboard box with the bulb opening facing outward, cut a hole for a hair dryer or heat gun on the opposite side, and use indirect heat through the box rather than pointing a heat source directly at the plastic housing, which risks melting or warping it.

It's also worth knowing that a broken seal, rather than the light unit's design, is the most common genuine cause of persistent water ingress rather than simple condensation — worth distinguishing between the two before assuming a full replacement is necessary.

Toyota Aygo Tail Lights: More Wiring Behind There Than Most People Assume

The Toyota Aygo's tail light units do a lot in a small space, typically bundling brake, indicator, reversing and rear fog light functions together — so when something goes wrong electrically, more than one function can fail at once, and "faulty tail light" is rarely a precise diagnosis on its own.

Toyota Aygo Tail Lights: What It Does

Beyond basic rear visibility, tail light units on the Aygo typically integrate brake lights, indicators, reversing lights and rear fog lights into a single housing. Higher trims may use LED units with a distinct light signature, which are not interchangeable with standard halogen units even if the physical mounting looks similar.

Tail light design changed between generations of the Aygo, and facelifted versions within the same generation often use a revised light signature that isn't interchangeable with pre-facelift units. Always confirm the exact part for your specific model year before ordering. Whether you're sourcing a replacement tail lights for your Toyota Aygo from a dealer, specialist, or online marketplace, always check compatibility against your registration or VIN before buying, and confirm you're ordering the correct side — driver's side (RH in the UK) or passenger side (LH in the UK) — since these are not interchangeable.
