Default 98/99 vs 03 tail lights

Can someone please tell me if the 98/99 GS (300/400) tail lights are perfectly adaptable to the 03 GS300 tail lights? I'm lookin for 98/99 GS tail lights for my 03 GS3 and want to make sure its a perfect fit, w/out having to modify any of the wirings as well. Anyone's help is much appreciated!

I know that most people want 01-05 taillights on their GS and an adapter was used to convert it to fit those lights. I'm almost 100% sure you need an adapter to use 98/99 taillights on your 03 GS.

Its called the wiring harness its usually sold with the lights themselves... pop out ur old lights, disconnect the old harness, connect the new one and your set.
