The chances of finding an exact match are slim based on age. Here’s a triple LED upgrade, just use a test light or multimeter to determine what wire does what on the RV then match them to the new lights. You may need to fabricate a backing if there’s a significant size difference. Make sure you use bytle tape under the lights, I typically don’t seal the bottom so if water does get inside it can drain out.

We have a 1996 Gulfstream Yellowstone Ultra on a Chevy chassis. The advice given by Colorado is correct and that has been our experience. When the plastic cracked I searched widely for new or used taillights that matched. We ended up buying two new LED units and I must say it was a great upgrade in safety.
