JL fender LED light connector issue

[CebasJeeps]

I just got matching color fenders and they come with LED lights. The connector seems different and a lot smaller compared to the original ones on the jeep. does anyone know how to bypass this or should i just swap out the old lights? here are some pictures of the new ones

That’s the connector for the side marker. Should plug in to the harness for the fender lights.

There should be a bundle or wires coming out of the fender light with five wires.

that was helpful! I see where that plugs into the side marker. There was not any more wires besides that one. I have not removed the fenders yet, but would i need replacement wiring to be able to connect?

here are some additional pics...

You are missing the whole harness it looks like. To be honest those don’t look like the LED either…. Look like halogens still. But I could be wrong.

okay thats interesting... would I need to purchase the harness or can i swap with the old ones already installed?

Ouch, Definitely LED’s and definitely missing the harness. Bad news is that harness is not available separately, it’s part of the light. Easiest way forward is to get another set of lights with the harness.

Depending on your skill and comfort with wiring you could make a harness out of your old wires, so not insurmountable.

Sadly this happens too often.
