from looking closely at the dreamconceptz tail lamps, I'd say you'll need to use the stock bulb connectors for these. I mean you just need to separate the factory tail lamp housing from the factory bulb/lamp harness, and then install it with the new style tail lights.

notice that they dont come with wires and bulbs?
the only wires in the pix can be seen with the inner tail lamps.

refer to the link below for the same tail lights but of a different color..... install pix are also there.

how do the LEDs work if you are just plugging bulbs into them?

sorry if my previous post was misleading. the stock bulbs wont be used with the new tail light housing, just the stock tail light harness is used.

now if you look at the link I posted, one of the pictures shows that the main tail light has wires in it where one end is connected to a double contact bulb "base", these wires are definitely for the LEDs.

I just got my Smith Club tails in today and of course just found out that the plugs were different upon there arrival. After just finding and reading this thread I now at least know that they can be made work, thanks to everyone who has posted (hence why I just found and joined this forum now). One thing I haven't noticed or checked yet is if the plug for the trunk lid tails need to be changed also or are they good to go? I haven't open up the lid yet.
