Newell used the same basic taillight configuration from the introduction of the Series 60 engine in the a few 1964 models (#355 was first with the horizontal layout rather than the vertical layout used with the 8V92's model 2000's). This taillight arrangement was used unit the introduction of the 2000i model during the 2005 model year with #722 when they added the Porsche styled rear end and introduced the 3 round taillights. With 753, the first 2006, the front end design changed to a Porsche design but the taillights remained the three separate round taillights. That was the P2000i model. In 2007 #804 still had the 3 round taillight but by #808, still a 2007 P2000i, they had changed to the 3 taillights inside the large chrome piece that had the Newell name on it and went from one side of the rear to the other. I don't have any rear photos of 805-807. That large chrome full width tall panel continued on until 2008 about #1233 when the chrome plate was reduce in height eliminating the Newell name from the chrome plate and eliminating the lines that separated each light. As afrench pointed out, in 2011 by coach #1411, the chrome plate had grown taller and there were only 2 lights in the bezel on each side with the backup lights lower down on bumper. The 2020p in 2013 had the waterfall taillights that wrapped around the side of the coach by #1466. The p50 came out during the 2017 model year starting with coach #1600 (Newell skipped 1566-1599 while certification tests were being completed). Starting with the p50, the large vertical taillights were mounted lower on the rear of the coach with much less chrome and no styling connection between the two side.
