Default Halogen to Halogen BLIS tail light

I know this probably isn't a very popular upgrade, but it is what it is. Can anyone point me in the direction of what I need to make it work, meaning base halogen to the XLT halogen w/ BLIS? Tons of options for halogen to full LED BLIS, but got a good deal on the halogen BLIS, and thats the route I'm going. Could the any of the already existing adapters work? Any advice would help, thanks guys.

And I don't care about the BLIS part working. Just normal light functions. Thanks

These are the only connectors for halogen blis tail light, I believe one is for blis and the other is for various light. the blis module inside the tail light can be takien out also. if your truck has only one plug and it matches what's in the picture, I don't see why it wouldn't plug & play.

I don't though. I only have the smaller plug, and its a different plug from base halogen to halogen BLIS. goes straight to a harness for the 3 halogen bulbs and thats it. after seeing the adapters for halogen to LED I was hoping for a aftermarket solution in the form of a harness. Doesn't look like im gonna get it. so, goal now is to swap the harness off the actual light so the plugs match, then just wire up the reverse light outside of the plug.

you wouldn't happen to see a part number on that entire harness would you? if I had to swap the harness from the main body harness and run it up to each tail light that wouldn't be so bad either.

Sorry I don't have the part number nor do I recall seeing any part number when had it off, the little thing hanging from the wire isn't a part number tag, just a piece of electric tape hanging. personally, I'd prefer to swap the wiring harness on the light assembly side, lots more work to swap main body harness IMO.

I've narrowed down the reverse lights, now its just move the harness from the halogen to the halogen with BLIS, take the reverse wires off the halogen harness, and splice them to the LED reverse, and I should be back on the road. theoretically that is, but we shall see.
