I have the marquez for my truck and hve seen the fesler, I like the looks of the marquez better. the marquez have better detail to me. Of course it's all about personal preference.

Re: marquez or fesler billet taillight lens ?

I agree with big d, its all personal preference... I bought the Fesler because they were cheaper, but still had the similar look. I think that worked out better in the long run because of the path I have decided to go with on the truck.

Good luck!

From the looks of it, Marquez changed the look on the tailights. They used to have the mounting ears like the Feslers do. They looked good before, now they look even better.

-Thumpt how does this new design bolt on?

Re: marquez or fesler billet taillight lens ?

the new ones mount from the side. There are screws on the inside of the tailgate opening. I believe thats how it worked... They had them at SEMA and I was hungover, so my memory loss on that day was pretty strong

the new ones are nice for 800+$ but you can still get the regular exterior mounts for the 200 range

Re: marquez or fesler billet taillight lens ?

the Marques are awesome especially for a resto mod, that pic does no justice in person they are so so nice and are recessed in the housein twice as much as the bolt on version, all billet and glass and worth every penny, these are going on my truck just with a brushed housing instead of polished or natural.

Man those Marquez lights look killer. That is a lotta cash for those. But of course it's only money.
