5-door tail light



4-door tail light



The top of the sedan tails slants down as it goes towards the sides vs. on the 5-door where the bottom slants up. Incidentally since you're looking to replace the red ones you have some options, especially since it's a sedan. You can get the clear ones from '04-'06 which have colored inner lenses. You can get the '07-09 clear ones which have clear inner lenses (still a red inner inner lens for the brake/tail, covered by a clear). You can get the OEM LED tails, or you can get one of the numerous aftermarket LED tails available for the sedan.
