I went to cut the rivots off, then I discovered the wires where wired to the light. As I was expecting a plug. Do I need to buy a plug. Picture of old light and new light![]()

Tail light conversion question, direct wire to plug style.

Can't tell on second picture, but I'd buy a pigtail and be done with it
Flat Earth Trucker, Dino soar and feldsforever Thank this. -
Yeah just go get the pigtails, they are cheap, like $7 each and they seal pretty well.
Flat Earth Trucker, Final Drive, Dino soar and 2 others Thank this. -
Just be sure to solder and shrink tube the connectors or your going to have wiring issues. Those lights are readily available
Pretty much standard for tail lights on new trucks. Better than hacking your wiringBean Jr. and feldsforever Thank this. -
I took the advice and orderes the pig tail.

How do I figure out what gauge wire connector to get, I do know its a heat seal connector. But thats all I know
-
That should be 18 or 16 gauge wire so a small heat shrinkable crimped connector would work.
