    Hi. Im looking to get rid of the led tail lights on my 2010 sport. Found some off a 2014. Will they direct fit a 2010 plug and play or should i go for an earlier set? Thanks in advance!

    I assume they would fit right in (bolt in wise) but i dont know about the electrical system. The 2014 uses LED's if im correct and the electrical system would be set up for the normal bulbs that probably require a different amount of voltage.

    My '12 had those lights. I hated them. I replaced them with Depo tails

    Those are not OEM 2014 tail lights--they are the '05 to '08 more traditional style.

    The 2014 tail lights are the "fast 'n furious", Altezza inspired trendy looking things first used in 2009 (as suggested in previous posts the electronics for the LEDs is within the tail light housing with a pig-tail that connects to the harness).

    One of the first things I did to my '09 was get rid of them:
