I did it a few years ago, i can't remember, but i think i only change a pin...or two, on monday i'll take a look

Not 100% sure what I did, but its like switch 2 and change the 3rd one dont even need a multimeter to do this

Leave one of the old taillights in and fit a new one, while using the old light as reference what should be switched on, ie. indicator, brake, you will see what does and what doesent work on your new one.

Trace the wire colours of the functions, that dont work on the JDM light on, the EU light and check were they are pinned on the plug. Change it acording to the EU pinout on the JDM light.

Colour are the same on both lights so its easy

Edit: Yes the foglight function is not avaliable the the JDM light!

Checked!

If i'm not mistake, i remember indicator and rear gear light are the same, I connected it and it worked, the problem were the red lights. I checked the right taillight, this is the pin position to work in Eurpean wires:





I hope it helps

Compare the wire colors and pin locations on the usdm and jdm light plugs. IIRC only 1 wire/pin needs to be moved on each jdm/euro tail light to match the usdm configuration.

Cool!!
Thanks guys, I will certainly get it to work now!

The lights are being refurbished a bit now, so when I get them back I will take some pics of what I did.
