Maybe trying to change the shape of the light to add the small kink is taking longer than originally thought. Or they keep doin trial and error and have to keep ordering more lights from Ford!

I still say the quickest & cheapest way to do this is to manufacture a trim ring (much like the new MMD ones) that goes around the 2013 taillights that take up the gap for use on the 2012!

Sounds pretty simple, and would look good.
