Upgrading Ascent/Ascent Sport tail lights to SX/SL type LED tail lights

[imaduddinmd]

Hi everyone, 

I am thinking of upgrading my stock tail lights to the stock LED ones of SX/SL trims. I really like the look of those LEDs. The lower spec models have a boring look to them. Has anyone here did it? 

There are few people in America who did it but it seems everyone of them has a non hybrid model and no one seems to have done it in a hybrid. Not sure if hybrid models have a different wiring or something. 

Any ideas appreciated.

from what i understand the wiring is different for stock headlight and taillight. and the programme is also different.

basically can’t do it with a straight swap.

The wiring for the taillights in the petrol models are exactly the same as the hybrid models. However, putting the nicer lights in isn't plug and play. You would have to separate the power from the brake light wire that goes to the rear running lights.
