led tail lights HELP

hey guys. i own a 2011 fit sport automatic. im trying to replace my stock tail lights with led tail lights. im ordering these leds from japanparts.com . However, i have not been able to find any diy videos or pictures anywhere TO SHOW ME IF THE NEW TAIL LIGHTS will work or how complicated it is to change them, or if i need to play with the wires,etc... Is kinda frustrating me because i love the look of those lights, but i dont want to throw money away in case they dont work. By the way i think the lights are axis brand. If anybody could shed some light on the matter it would be greatly appreciated.

if they are axis, then it will be plug and play, all you have to do is unplug the harnesses, remove 3 nuts holding the taillight unit, and the stock taillight will come out, then install your new taillights, screw the 3 nuts back and plug harness in, and done

No bumper removal necessary. Unplug stuff, unscrew, screw in, plug stuff in. Done.
