    It's a taillight they're bound to have similarities with other tail lights.

    Cut & broke off stuff. Prolific ziptie and tape usage.
    Tooling up is expensive for suppliers. If you can use the same equipment for multiple customers though...

    You can always find strong similarities across the auto market.
