Guys, please help!

How come its plug and play? Are you sure?! I just got a set of mine, the patch cord is COMPLETELY different design, so its no way near a plug&play install. It sounds like some retrofit adapter from old style to new style connector needed. I tried to install the restyled tail lights yesterday and no way, I am missing something?

The first 3 pics are current/old tail lights connectors, the last 3 pics are new LED restyled tail lights. Thats why no plug&play install.

They are OEM facelifted tail lights from the dealer. I did not group buy it, just ordered them myself. Anyway they are exactly same part #'s ofcourse, I am pretty sure everyone will face same problem...

yes these are correct numbers


As for what you see is some smaller part of the tail light that you seems able to order separate. Lamp panel I guess.

So how do you install them? And where do you get the right connector from?

Please let us know.

Jason, I did not install them, simply not possible without adaptor. So I am hoping some member that has it installed, will help me out. There must be stock or aftermarket adapter, well I guess.
