tail light lens replacement question 200 1988

hey everyone,

i just got a new passenger side tail light lens off ebay to replace the broken one on my 88 240. unfortunately, the circuitry is the earlier type that doesn't have 3 lines to the running light for the fog lights. is it possible to swap the circuitry? i can't tell how to do it.

thanks
jake

    Of course you can swap the circuit sheet. It will work just fine. Careful at the harness connection where double sided tape holds the sheet to the light. On the passenger side, also be careful when inserting the white bulb socket into that housing. It will go but it needs to be coaxed in, since the slots and keys on the socket are slightly different. Any one who tells you you can't use a pre-85 light housing and have full function lights, including third brake light circuit, hasn't tried hard enough.
