splice old connectors with the bulbs that are in the kouki tails.

Tell the idiot to splice the plugs from his factory tails onto the kouki tails. Really, REALLY simple.

Exactly what they said. Splice, wires are the EXACT same. I hope the buyers not a member on here, if he is, he should have searched sigh lol

No, the sockets are not interchangeable! You need to cut the connectors (the part on the taillight that plugs into the chasis harness) off both the stock lights and the kouki tails and then either solder/shrink wrap (yay) or butt connect (boo) the CONNECTORS from the stock tails onto the kouki tails. You cannot simply transfer the sockets and bulbs from one to the other!
