Fairly sure with the sport package it's just plug and play, but you can just pop your plate off real quick and look for a connector to verify. If there isn't one, all you would have to do is tap into the wires to make your own connector

2010 is not a simple plug and play, you have to do some wiring stuff. only upto 2008 that is plug and play, there is a guide here, on how to do it, just do a search.

Up to 2009 is plug n play and there are some DIY on here that people used for the 06 models that were NOT Plug n play maybe its the same process for 2010? Jus pop em off and see if the connector is there.

'07-'09s were completely plug and play. Base model '06s were not plug and play, the other packages were.

If I'm not mistaken, the '10s still have the connector there, but the wiring work needs to be done.

I confirmed on my 2011 6MT that I did not have the connector at all. As far as I knew all of the 2010's had the connector, but it just wasn't connected to anything somewhere down the line. I could be wrong.
