From the research I've been doing everyone says you need a 05-07 harness to use anzo tails and I have a 09

If he has an 08-10 tails he'll have issues with the reverse bulb not getting into the the housing. I've posted a pic showing the difference.

Now look at your reverse bulb in the Anzo housing and tell me it'll look/work right using the shorter bulb plug of the '08-10.

Is that the only problem I would run into on this because I'd everything else works I might be able to like shave a tab off my harness to get the reverse bulb to fit

The reverse bulb setup on top is from the 08-10 harness(the short reverse bulb plug), the lower is from the 05-07(longer reverse bulb plug). I don't have any close up of the reverse bulb installed(also currently away from my car for a while to take any), but if you were to run the 08-10 the bulb will not be set in correctly to shine against the reflector. I just straight swapped in the 05-07 harness after comparing the two. You are welcome to try the 08-10 I you want to, js.

yup, the two harnesses are different. only place you'll find one is either junkyard or the dealership. at the dealership i think it's $35 each side.
