The reason I ask is because I am looking to tint the taillights. I've found some for pre-lci cars that are somewhat cheaper. What gives. Sorry for my newbness but all the searches yielded retrofit info

The light control modules and programming (bulb check) are different. Not plug-and-play. Physical form is identical, however.
