You're in for a treat! You'll have to wire in pigtails to the exports that match what you have on the car. I can't remember what the part number is off hand nor am I having luck googling it right now. There's a few guides still up.

Make sure you use all incandescent lights in the assembly as LEDs will not work from my experience.

There's a wire under the dash that you need to cut as well as you needing to replace the flasher relay with a trailering unit most likely.

Good luck and make sure you have a plan before taking it all apart.

I had one hell of a time finding information on the break interrupt wire. It's in the drivers kick panel harness and that is as much as I remember. Other than that the wiring isn't too bad

I used that one as a guide.
However, I had the guy I bought the exports from get me the bodyside harness as well from the donor car (Middle East), for a plug and play type install.


Using mine as a guide, I also made/modified the bodyside harness for another local guy who put exports on his car.
