LED tail lights on 09 WH?

Ok so I'm getting ready to import some stuff from "over there". Among the things, a set of LED tail lights. I'm sorry if this is a repost in any way. But since I have to import it as a private person I have to pay import taxes and go through the painful customs process. So returning items is not an option. IE I have to be 100% sure everything fits and works.

So.....the thing is that even though one web site states they fit on 2005 up to 2009 WK's, on ebay all LED tails I find says they only fit up to 2007?? I understand that all the info out there applies to the WK. But how about the WH? Would they fit?
And Rob.. I know you told me in another post that the LED tails would be plug and play for the WH model. So just please confirm that I don't have to make a harness :D

WH tail light/connector


Sorry for being a pain guys....but you have to understand that it's not easy for me down here, and that I simply can't send things back.

If anyone feels to recommend a vendor for the LED tail lights, please do so. :thumbsup:

Im 99.9% sure the lights are plug and play...The wires and connector look exactly the same as my 2005 WK...The reason the led lights alll state that they are for 2005-2006 only, is because Jeep changed the tailights some and the harness and connectors on the 2007 and up WK's

The shape of the lights is exactly the same. Jeep changed the lights on the WK's to a two-chamber versus the older three-chamber. The older three-chamber lights have seperate turn siganl and brake bulbs, where the newer two chamber only have one combination turn/brake/parking light bulb....that is why the harness is different...but you should be golden.....but you might not pass inspection with them on..I believe the reason jeep put the different lights on the WH is because the European laws say you must have an amber lens for the turn signals..I could be wrong though

:thumbsup: Good info Saleen. Thanks.
Inspection won't be a problem.....take a look at where I live!!! Hehehe. I can do a straight pipe from headers without muffler if I'd want to :D And if someone at inspection says anything I simply drop a tenner on the floor....and I'm clear to go :lol:


PLUG AND PLAY 100% You lucky guy lol

I wish my 07 was plug and play
Yeah...feels wonderful not having to struggle with harnesses and all that :D
