Seems this thread is getting hijacked somewhat. Back to the OP comments. The taillights lenses have tabs on top and bottom. Original comments makes it seem like there was only one tab to guide orientation. That is false. As stated, the tabs are to let the lens bottom out on the bucket so the gasket is not over compressed. It seems obvious which way is up, but if you need to know, two half circle notches shown in the photo above (post #1) are drain holes, so obviously they would be on the bottom.
