Okay just played around with the picture of your lights and the smoked recon third light on PAINT on my computer and they match incredibly well almost identical.

I wonder if they would match up with my third light? I hope they get that issue with the plugs figured out if not they got their advertising messed up which i told them b/c all the 07 truck have 2 plug connectors not 1 like they say. They claim the 08s are the ones with 2 plugs but whatever as long as they get the problems solved if not i wasted $327 b/c im really not wanting to tap into my stock wiring system to make them fit.

Thats what i was thinking but then i would have to pull the taillights on my 03 truck and put a test light on each wire and write down exactly what what was and then go to my 07 and put the test light on each of those wires and see exactly what is what their too and match things up then like you said. With some connectors and short pieces of wires. I didnt realize that this was you dieseljunky that had sent me the diagram to do this and i think it may come in handy now thanks and for those who may be interested here it is.

driver side (4 wires to 3 wires)

I have a set of the RECON smoked LED taillights sitting on dining room table right now. I am working to create an adapter pigtail...the RECON lights are wired for pre-07. Should have pigtail done this week....but the whole "backyard electrician" thing above would surely work too.

SCVipermad how do you have the smoked taillights i was told when i placed order that they were backordered for 3 weeks that was almost 2 weeks ago so i cant wait do you have some kind of inside connection i wish i did. And be sure to post you findings on the pigtail you are assemlying i may be interested in having you make me one if the price is right.
