Default Factory LED tail lights fit Non-LED plugs?

I have a 2016 Ram 2500. Some yahoo at Lowe's cracked my driver side tail light and took off. Now I'm considering changing the regular tail lights to factory LED tail lights but wanted to ask you gents if they would fit with my existing plugs.

Thank you,
Patrick

Sorry to hear of your troubles.

I can not help with oem led tails, but my aftermarket led's plugged right in.

The OEM LED tail lights use different wiring, and will not fit the non-OEM plugs. You'd need a conversion harness (or build one yourself). Here's an example.
