Haha I guess they needed an excuse to update them. I'll either be buying these or your set if you ever want to sell them.

Soph -- Let's talk next week. Merry Christmas to you et al.

The reason they would have moved it would to have it look more like the Escalade ones. The Escalade has the reflector going up the side like that.

These are the Escalade lights

The G4's are newer and resemble Esky's more. But, they don't curve like the Esky lights and all LED's illuminate softly at night, rather than 1 row like on the Escalade.

But the closest would be the G4.

I'll have to check mine. If that's the only diff, then that seems goofy. I mean, why would you really want the reflector there anyway?

It's difficult to see the difference in these photos but it is possible they changed it to make it legal. You must have a certain amount of reflector vsible from behind the car even without the lights on to be DOT Approved.

No,they all light up at once. Not like the Escalade. I have these tails. I like the way they look, but hate how they function sometimes. When you press the brakes they light up fine. But when you press the brakes and turn the turn signal on, the mirror flasher and the tail light start flashing opposite of one another. It looks so stupid. But when you take your foot off the brake, the signal and tail light will blink at the same time.
