Per post #1 in this thread....

Sounds like the 2009 harness/connector is needed in order to complete the install...

Well if you do a swap you just unplug the harness and plug it into the car that you're swapping with. You don't need to modify anything or buy anything extra if you're swapping with another car.

He already posted pics in the FL section...


Well yeah.. its Plug & Play with a Full swap, since you confirmed it..

and

It's Plug & Play if you BUY the necessary connector harnesses..
..if you’re doing a straight up housing purchase.. just like the OP is trying to do…

Its actually just like when you BUY or SELL IS-F tail lights, without the right connector harness present, they will not work or install properly.
