Yep , that is what my Lexus parts manager buddy told me. I will wait and see about the harness and lower section first. The top part is just a reflector.

yup thats it in the pic. and yeah i tried doing it in the beginning without changing the top part which wasn't worth it only because the shades were different and makes it look weird in daylight. The pic shows exactly what it looks like, beautiful, especially with clear lights i'd think. You guys out there with the darker color sc's ITS A MUST !!! worth the money with no doubt

From what I saw, the older parts have vertical lines when the new ones
are horizontal.
You may not notice until you are told so, but they ARE different.

Hi Guys, I'm new to the site. I want to perform this mod on my 05. For those who ordered the new 06 tails, do you have the part # and what if it came as a whole assembly or seperate.
I have a local contact that can get them below dealer price. Maybe we can get a group buy going for those who are interested.

I will have a post up within days on the complete mod with part numbers PLUS the electrical issue as 06 tails will set off a burned bulb indicator on the dash
