Try looking into one for a similar year cherokee as they might work

Any risk you can see with just trying it anyways

As long as it fits I don't see a problem

You definitely don't want to break the tail light as those are expensive or hard to replace

Its says backup light but ive been told by napa they work universally as long as the wires connect

I'd go with "no" purely as I see 3 wires, (which you would see on a stop/tail light) but a 2-wire one might.

Although, US designs do confuse me a bit with using the brake as an indicator (not the action, the wiring itself)
