If you have a D12 or D13, they used Plymouth taillights. The large D11 Custom used the same lights as the US DodgeBillToronto, ON

That's not a Canadian Dodge, but if it really is a Dodge, it is an American-built export Dodge, model D12. Total production - 13.

The export Plodge from 1935 through 1941 offered all the Plymouth body styles in one series, which in 1939 was the D12. Thus the coupes, sedans, convertibles, utility sedan etc. were all offered as a D12.

For the Canadian market, the Dodge D12 (Six) offered the Plymouth P-7 coupes and sedans while the Plymouth DeLuxe (P8) coupes and sedans were the basis for the Dodge D13 (DeLuxe Six).

Chrysler of Canada built no convertibles from 1937 through 1962, but did import Plymouth, DeSoto, Chrysler and the American-market Dodge convertibles. The first Plodge convertible was imported for 1954, basically an export Kingsway Custom convertible with Mayfair nameplates.

I do have photos of a Canadian 1939 Dodge, but they are have not yet arrived from Vancouver. In any case, the D12 and D13 Dodges used the same taillight base, reflector, and socket as the Plymouth. Thus is you are looking for basic measurements of a 1939 Dodge D12 or D13 taillight, any 1939 Plymouth will give you the same dimensions.

Attached is a photo of the rear of a 1939 Plymouth coupe.
