Updating to clear tail lights

My 3.0 X5 is 10/2000 and I want to install OEM clear tail lights from Ebay. Are they all interchangeble or I should look for only specific years, say pre-face lift of 2004?

Thanks

not sure where is the data coming from, but 5800rpms is about 120 mph, 5000-105 and 4000 around 85 on my car. I took it to redline in 5th many times and never had limiter kicked in.

For others:...

First of all, I have 2001 X5 3.0 with 5 speed and enjoy it very much. Coming from 440 hp S4 6 spd and 540i6, I can attest that CDV on X5 probably would not do much difference. On X5 clutch feels very...

You need to re read my message, you missing a few points

my car is below average weightwise, so I would deduct atleast 50 lbs from your Edmunds estimate. I had less than 1/4 tank at the time. That puts me in a 18.7 lbs/hp range. You also do not account for...
