Default Password:JDM fogs compatable with OEM wiring?

Right now I have the OEM fog kit installed (using all Honda parts/wiring). I've helped a friend install his "ebay OEM" fog lights.. which I guess are the Depot style. The wiring was significantly different.

I'm trading my clear OEM fogs for the Password yellow knock-off JDM ones, which I understand to be just Depot style with yellow glass. Despite the wiring differences, should the actual fog light units plug in the same way?

The foglight plug that connects to the harness may be different. However, you can always remove the plug off the PJDM foglights and connect the wires to the OEM harness. Essentially, you can use the PJDM foglights with OEM harness.

We were looking to mail eachother the foglights on the same day.. so it becomes complicated if we end up having to exchange harnesses, etc..

From what I can see in the pics I was sent.. the harness looks very similar.

A harness is just a way to give power to the fogs from a button. Lights will be pretty much the same minus the plug. So, if the plug doesnt fit, just cut off the plug and splice.

Decided to not go through with the trade.. if he was more local, doing something like that wouldn't be bad.

I also kept reading through past threads.. and found one where several people confirmed they aren't interchangable. Oh well.. Lamin-X it is
