Still looking for this '52 Kaiser Manhattan Tail-light Assembly.  Any hints?  Isn't there one anywhere in the USA?  Someone said the '52 and '53 Manhattan tail-lights are interchangeable.  Is that right?

Is it the early style made from left over 51's or the later style that looks like the 53's ?

You don't state which side you are looking for which further complicates matters.  There is a 53 tail light housing on e-bay right now; don't recall which side it is for.   ;)

1952 and 1953 Kaiser taillights are the same - the difference is between left and right side.
